I'd been leaving this one for Rob, given the earlier discussion - but I
had one (minor) comment about the commit message here. I think it is fine
for the kernel to unconditionally read a property if present, with no
regard for the compatible in question, and to rely on the binding
ensuring that the properties are not used where invalid. IOW, I don't
think that that is a relevant justification for making the properties
available on all hardware.
However, as you say, it seems like all versions of the core actually do
support the features the properties control and therefore the patch is
perfectly fine. I just wanted to ~comment on~nitpick that portion of the
commit message.
