I found the review or at least the reference for the ti-lmu.txt binding. https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/764180/ Does not appear that the binding was sent to the device tree mail list. (Maybe that email list did not exist in Feb 2017). Especially with the amount of change that is being submitted in the newer patchsets.
