I think you missed something. `mikrobus-boards` is not a child node of 
`mikrobus0`. See the `board` property in `mikrobus0`. That is what 
selects the board attached to the connector.

The `mikcrobus-boards` node itself should be moved to some independent 
location and included from a system that wants to support mikrobus 
boards. The connector will only have a phandle to the board (or boards 
in case a single mikroBUS board has 1 i2c and 1 spi sensor or some 
combination).

Yes, that is the goal.

No, it will look as follows:

```

&mikrobus0 {
     status = "okay";

     board = <&thermo-click>;

};


&mikrobus_board {
         thermo-click {
             compatible = "maxim,max31855k", "mikrobus-spi";
             spi-max-frequency = <1000000>;
             pinctrl-apply = "spi_default";
         };
   };

```

Well, the driver is still needed because some things cannot be done 
generically in dt. Eg:

1. SPI chipselect. Each connector will have different chipselect number 
mapped to CS pin. In fact a mikrobus board might use other pins like RST 
as chipselect as well.

2. Using pins other than their intended purpose like GPIO.
