We do not consider here "older" or "newer" DTBs, but existing ones in the world using this binding. If it was optional so far, it cannot be made mandatory without changing the ABI.

The implementation indeed does not enforce it (except adding error msg, about which I commented). Therefore it should be an optional property. Best regards, Krzysztof
