Yes, I will remove the "brcm," prefix.

Yes, that was the idea when using "genX-eq-preset", for X in {3,4...}.

Keep in mind that this is an RFC; I have a backlog of commit submissions 
before I can submit the code that uses this DT property.  If you 
(Krishna) want to submit something now I'd be quite happy to go with 
that.  I don't believe it is acceptable to submit a bindings commit w/o 
code that uses it (if I'm incorrect I'll be glad to do a V2).
