Please split bindings to a separate patch.

This is a Lego specific pin which in turn drives IM (or IF) signals? 
This should have a vendor prefix with either lego or Sitronix depending 
on the answer.

Presence/absence doesn't sense. Doesn't the state of the GPIO line 
matter? You should just say if not present, the interface defaults to 
3-wire mode.
