I'm on the wall about that. If we take every vendor specific property, this file will explode. Not sure I want to do that.
Also, we haven't even finished all the generic bindings. I'm just adding bindings as I get familiar with each of them and I test them on hardware I have lying around before sending it out. So, there's where my focus is right now wrt fw_devlink and DT.
I wonder how many of the vendor specific properties do very similar things and got in over time. Maybe they can be made generic? What one did you have in mind?
