You have described some additional features which will require
additional driver support.  I would expect that the device tree bindings
for these features would be added as the features are added and the DTS
files updated, for example by listing additional compatible strings if
that was the binding update, as is the normal practice.  Obviously any
hardware which is not compatible with the current binding should not be
being registered using the current binding.

It is not clear from the above comment by Sebastian if he is referring
to the same set of hardware differences or something new - doing things
based on device address is highly unusual, it sounds like something to
do with the integration into the SoC rather than to do with the IP.
