Thanks, I missed that thread. That being said, there is no real rational
:-)
It seems to be a preference more than anything else.
I'm curious now, why powerpc was not really using that approach?

I'd rather explicitly disable an IP than assuming than it is disabled by
default and then enabling it in the board file. But again it is just a
different view point, since at the end it will have the same effect.

If we really want the disabled state to be the default state, why is it
not disabled in the DT fmwk by default?

Regards,
Benoit
