It is an absolutely trivial binding as is, it is utterly
disproportionate to delete both the binding and the driver to fix
whatever it is that the issues you're seeing are (I can't really tell
TBH).  Undocumented properties are a separate thing but again a revert
is obviously disproportionate here, glancing at the driver the code is
all well enough separated and can have default values.  Looking again I
did miss the sysclk selection which should be dropped, clocks should use
the clock bindings.

It's also not the end of the world if we have a driver that isn't
perfect.

Please, try to keep things constructive.
