I support getting the problem fixed. However, the series also needs to fix the 
LPC devicetree binding at
 
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/aspeed-lpc.txt

What's proposed isn't backwards compatible. We need to agree that a breaking 
change is the way we want to go and get Rob's buy-in. Given the impact of the 
change I'd prefer we don't try to maintain backwards compatibility. All known 
users of the binding ship the dtb with the kernel.

Can we get a v2 with the binding documentation fixed? That will probably need
some review.
