Well, it would of been nice if you had made a comment to either v1 or
v2 of my patchset saying this is going to cause problems for some
devices.

So i will go look at your patch to add frontend and backend and see
what it means for the current DT binding. The nice thing about
kirkwood (and Dove) is, there is no uboot with DT support. Hence
nobody is flashing there DT blob. They are always using appended DT.
So i'm not against changing the binding. And it has only been in the
kernel for one cycle, so i doubt there are too many users at the
moment.
