I see.  I've always looked at it as "primary OS + u-boot additions in
another file".  When we use bindings they are the Linux ones, yes (when
they aren't our own things).  I've always seen it as making sync with
the authoritative DTS for the HW easy as why we copy Linux and add to
it.  The end goal to me is to make sure that DTS maintenance is easy on
the HW owner.
