So, if we sums things up. You introduce in some documentation example
some property, that you never document, that you still use in one
single DT, you don't even use that property in your driver, and now
that you realise you meant something else, you want the code that
actually parse the *right* property and does the right thing, that all
other DT agree (and depend on) to be reverted?

This is a joke, right?

If not, I can show you a handful of DTs that will be equally broken if
you revert the commits. Who wins?
