I agree, this can be squashed with a previous commit.
My intention was to keep things separated in this first series.

The framer property makes sense only if the stuff related the generic framer
(previous patches) are accepted whereas the QMC HDLC previous binding can be
accepted without this framer property.
I though it would be easier to review the full series with separated
modifications.

That's said, I will squash this patch with the patch 5 ("dt-bindings: net:
Add support for QMC HDLC") in the next iteration.

Best regards,
Hervé
