This commit provides the minimal necessary changes to the driver's device tree ABI, so that the driver can begin to describe the full hardware topology.

You're changing the ABI and trying to CC this to stable. This is obviously not at all OK, this would mean that if someone got a stable update with this change the ABI break would mean that their existing device tree would not work. The code should be making every effort to provide a stable ABI over new kernel releases, never mind within a stable point release.
