not sure about this, but maybe we should avoid references to Linux 
kernel config parameter in a DT binding. Since the driver already gaves 
warning in case the DT parameter is present, but kernel config doesn't 
fit, this should be enough.

According to the driver at least 0 is not allowed, maybe we should 
define minimum and maximum here and let dtbs_check take care of invalid 
values?
