Hi Krzysztof,

Although now I saw next patch, so clearly this commit is incomplete.
The split that Ryan has done here - by shifting to an identical separate
binding, then making the changes explicit - allows us to review the
actual changes without losing them in the move. Sounds like a benefit to
me?
Not related. I commented that rationale is incomplete. We do not move
parts of bindings because new device is someway different. There are
hundreds of bindings which cover different devices. We move them because
the binding is different.

You just need allOf:if:then: section to narrow the
constraints/presence of properties.
That seems like a more complex approach. This is separate IP from the
2500 controllers, wouldn't that warrant a new binding spec?
Not much different than every other soc. All of them are separate IPs.
Look at any Samsung, NXP or Qualcomm binding. Separate IPs.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
