No, silent NAKing and needless stalling is what you're doing. I responded to
your last email with extensive clarifications. You're being told by the
experts on the subject matter (Krzysztof and Conor) that the change is correct.
The change has no functional impact on the driver code. It's also in line with
commit 71839a929d9e ("dt-bindings: net: wireless: qcom,ath11k: describe the
ath11k on QCA6390") under which we had literally the same discussion and that
you ended up picking up after all.
Arnd: I've added you here to bring this to your attention because it's somewhat
related to what we discussed yesterday. It's a change that is very much
SoC-specific, that has trouble getting upstream due to the driver's maintainer
unwilingness to accept it. Is this a case where a change to DT bindings should
go through the SoC rather than the driver tree?
