I would prefer that as well, but I have'nt gone around looking for
similar examples on other SoCs (Jayesh, can you check?). One other
approach (alipine and few other places) has been for the bootloader to
update the property set in dtb as 0, which is not needed in this case
to the best of what I see.. just hoping we use a technique that most
board folks are familiar with across SoCs.
