Does frame_size here need to account for the 4-byte KS8995 special tag as
well?
No it does not and it has been tested on the hardware.
The special tag only exists inside the Switch.
[Severity: Medium]

This is a pre-existing issue and not introduced by this patch,
So it can be dealt with later, apart from this patch series.
I'm happy to do that once this gets merged.
[Severity: Low]

Should the bindings be updated for these three compatibles as well?
No and it has been explained before that driver
code and bindings are decoupled, and this needs to
be fixed in review-prompts.

I think this patch can go in.

Yours,
Linus Walleij
