It should be:
When the status property is not present under a node, the "okay' value
is assumed.
Note: the device tree specification does not document default value as
such, see v0.3 (2.3.4, page 14).
Yes, the "okay" is used in case the status property is missing (by Linux
at least).

Right, so how does that helps with devices present in the SoC, but no
node at all? First thing which comes to mind is AASRC, we don't have
Linux driver for it (and no DT binding document), but that does not mean
that it is not present. How PM would take that into account?

For the record: c was not really an option. There were no subjectivity,
the reason was pragmatic.
We are all familiar with the Devicetree specification, but let me quote
from chapter 2.3.4:
"okay"
Indicates the device is operational.
"disabled"
Indicates that the device is not presently operational, but it might
become operational in the future (for example, something is not plugged
in, or switched off).
Refer to the device binding for details on what disabled means for a
given device.
The reason why we kept McASP nodes (and dss) disabled in the soc dtsi
file is that they are not operation in the form they present in there.
They _need_ additional properties to be operational and those properties
can only be added in the board dts file.
This is not remotely a subjective view, this is the opposite of
subjectivity.
As for things not owned by the OS we have the "reserved" status.

Looks much better in this way.
?
I always wondered what is _not_ used by the board...
But it is not really about that, we need to disable these nodes as they
are incomplete in dtsi, they are not operational...
