Ok. I'll leave the interrupts optional, though I would have to implement
it in the driver as well. Is this all semantic changes you were referring to?
There is one more change, which you may have also considered as semantic
update. It's async clocks support - "pclk" clock. Would you like me to
unpin this alteration into an additional patch? Rob?
I'll also provide the next fixes in v2:
- single license with GPL-2.0-only,
- remove copyrights (it's not right to add our copyrights here),
- replace "additionalProperties: false" with "unevaluatedProperties: false"
- Remove "assigned-clocks" and "assigned-clock-rates" properties
