OK, will do. Adopted from imx6sx-sdb.dtsi and imx6sx-sabreauto.dts -
please update the existing files to be like you expect new ones to be.

In previous reviews I've been told that this is the new expected way to
write tuples, so I assumed that would apply here too, in that you can
have a varying count of tuples (mux lines), which in this case happen to
always have the same cell count (6).
For example I've rewritten pinctrl-0 lines in exynos5250 device trees
because maintainers considered it lazy to spare the inner ">, <",
despite still used in many places including bindings documentation.
The binary .dtb representation should be the same either way.
booting-without-of.txt doesn't comment and has no such example apart
from compatible string lists, so not sure whether that's just different
maintainer tastes or formalized somewhere?
That said, I seem to have a talent for finding such inconsistencies. ;)
Cheers,
Andreas
