I'm not yet convinced that this makes sense as this describes how the
consumer of the devicetree behaves not the hardware. How the hardware
behaves is already described by smnpn and ssnpm. I'd really like to
see some commentary from Samuel Holland on either this or on
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20251222-dimmer-wooing-db29fe925498@spud/
before I'd be happy with this change.
