OK, no problem :-)

Heh, so we managed to omit it for msm8996, msm8998, sdm845, sm8150 and
then someone reintroduced it for sm8250 and the following. :-)

Please don't introduce new device trees with known mistakes, at least if
it's trivial to fix. This will just increase the likelihood that someone
will accidentally copy from the commit and make the same mistake again.

This is effectively comparable to a dtbs_check failure (except that the
tooling can't check for this automatically at the moment). Either the
binding or the DT should be fixed. It's most definitely the DT in this
case. :-)
