Please trim the paths.

Add the optional node that fix this to the DT binding.

No, you cannot document post-factum... This does not follow DTS coding
style.

Also:

Node names should be generic. See also an explanation and list of
examples (not exhaustive) in DT specification:
https://devicetree-specification.readthedocs.io/en/latest/chapter2-devicetree-basics.html#generic-names-recommendation

... and nodes should be anyway defined in top-level and only customized
per variant. I am surprised that DTS patch carries a reviewed tag,
because it was never checked/tested :/
