I cannot parse this, the board for me is a SoC, busses and a number of components connected via e.g. I2C.
Can you define what you mean with a "board specific property"? It seems you are talking about what I would call an "SoC-specific property", i.e. something out of a .dtsi file for a certain SoC, whereas the .dts for an entire board is, well, for a board, a set of components on a PCB.
The arrangement of accelerometers and battery monitors on a certain board is board-specific, and it is also by definition bus-specific.
Yours, Linus Walleij
