That's understood :)

Well I wanted to get rid of anything except bare minimal that is required for
that driver.
What I did miss in that clean-up is description above.
In particular "Required subnodes" section that still lists "port".
And frankly now I'm a bit lost with what should I put in that binding
description and what should not. Any comments here are much appreciated.
