Ok, right, of course. What I meant was probably: why do we have
controller bindings in the kernel and schema bindings in a github tree?

For me, this is a tad more difficult to maintain. Like
i2c-controller.yaml file has the "no-detect" binding which IMO is wrong
in many ways. I rejected the supporting code for Linux.

Will do, thanks!
