I have seen following proposal from Marek Vasut:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220517235919.200375-1-marex@denx.de/T/#m52d6d0831bf43d5f293e35cb27f3021f278d0564

I am not sure if the discussion is completed though. I guess it was 
agreed this was needed/usefull and maybe the remaining thing to decide 
was just the property naming.

Best Regards
