No. The problem is adding new fixes requires updating the DT. That would 
be fine if you knew all possible issues and quirks up front. You may for 
some, but you won't catch them all.

Save DT properties for per board quirks/features, not per SoC ones.

I tend to agree, but am more tolerable of standard USB features than 
specific IP block quirks.
