I know you're just following the example of the existing Qualcomm boards
here but I think we should really avoid adding any more custom device
trees that are inconsistent with the official (upstream) Linux bindings.

Many other boards in U-Boot have moved to using the upstream Linux DTs
as-is (with some additions in -u-boot.dtsi) and I think we should do the
same for the Qualcomm boards. Judging from Tom's comments on other
patches (e.g. [1]), this might even be a requirement now?

The SPMI fix I just sent for DB410c/DB820c [2] is a good example why it
is important to have bindings consistent with Linux. Looking at your
patch reminded me that I never sent this fix (thanks!).

Can you check how hard it would be to reuse the upstream QCS404 DT?

Thanks!
Stephan
