Hi Brian,

Why do we need yet another binding to describe something that's
completely discoverable?

I'm working on *removing* any need to set the bus width, either from the
driver or from the DT, so I see this patch as step backwards.

Can anyone help me understand if there's *any* valid use case where we
want to specify a-priori the bus width, considering it's completely
discoverable at run-time?
