Right, though it can make sense to have a "default" in the SoC
sometimes. For instance, for i2c you almost always want external
pullups so you can tune them to the speed/trace lengths. Thus having a
default in the SoC file to disable i2c pullups would make a lot of
sense. The problem is the ugly / non-obvious "delete-property" we need
to put in the board.dts file if we ever need to override the SoC's
pull. :(

I actually remember this not being a problem in Rockchip SoCs. I guess
it's because they end up having an extra level of indirection. I guess
there's no great way to do that for Qualcomm without changing the
bindings.

Hopefully someone who cares about this board can test and let you know
either way.
