Partial verifiable description is a proper description, and adding unknowns
of "future goodness" does not serve any reasonable technical purpose, it
adds an illusion of a proper description only, and it was proven that this
illision shatters even for CAMSS, see CAMSS CSIPHY case, when a wrong DT
choice can not be undone anymore for legacy platforms. It is good to acquire
an ability to learn from the past.
Everything can be added ad-hoc while keeping the hardware description in
a proper and correct state.
Are all of the VFE Lite's verified ?
Even some of them ? I think not.
We are seeing in multiple places how failure to properly articulate SIDs
results in mess.
So full description of the hardware > partial.
BTW your statement about not being able to change DT bindings is wrong.
You just need a good argument and to make that case successfully upstream.
