Sure you can merge it in, or do it as a precursor. I'd split it though
purely as it can be picked up by a different maintainer if that makes
sense (at cost of some errors as things filter through the various
trees).

In this particular case we in theory want bisectability.  As you note
the updated tighter naming is already allowed, so we can make that change
first.

Normally we are adding new bindings and it doesn't matter on order as
we just have an undocumented binding if the driver goes first.

As noted it all become irrelevant when things go through different
trees anyway!
