The text binding does have a fallback compatible though:
  EP mode:
	"fsl,ls1028a-pcie-ep", "fsl,ls-pcie-ep"
So this is a change compared to the text binding, without any
justification for it being okay to do.

If other bits of software are using the fallback, you cannot remove it.

What do you mean by "unexisted"? It was in the text binding, so it is
perfectly fine to have it in the dts. Given it has users, I don't think
you should be removing the fallback without a very good justification.

What I am looking for here is you to explain in the commit message that
the endpoint driver in linux and the dts have always used "addr_space".
Checking that there's not a u-boot or *bsd that uses "config" would also
be very helpful.

Thanks,
