Sorry i'm not so familiar with stable rules before the posting.

This patch is mainly to separate the binding doc changes from the driver
changes in patch 6.

Why we need add the tuning-start-tap is because we met some tuning problem
on boards like MX7D SDB RevC, the board timing slight difference may
cause the default tuning steps(2 cells) can't cover the required tuning
range, then tuning fail.

This patch allow users to bypass the first a few meaningless tuning ranges
if they meet the problem.

Since there's no users in tree currently, i'm not sure if it breaks the rule.
But indeed people may need it if they meet this problem.
