The old binding also said:
"
When only one of the bonded channels need to be enabled, the property
"renesas,bonding" or "renesas,primary-bond" will have no effect. That
enabled channel can act alone as any other independent device.
"

If you then look at the driver implementation, the renesas,primary-bond
property doesn’t get evaluated if you have only one channel enabled.

Thanks,
Fab
