Yes, this doesn't sound appropriate and should be revisited.

Yeah, I partly mispoke here.  The patch I linked to is the first of a
two part series, the DT bindings document is the second patch, which had
Rob's ack (not the one I linked).

However, it looks like what made it into your patch tracker was a
squashed version of both patches, which is probably not appropriate.
It's probably best we drop what's in the patch queue, and we can get a
new rev sent out addressing your concerns.

Thanks,
