Yes, MSM8916 is changed as part of this patch series.

It should also be done for MSM8974, but because I don't have any test
devices with it I'm not able to do it myself.

Actually the old binding likely works only because of other side effects
(other drivers voting for the same resources), so I personally I would
definitely call it deprecated.
