I dug a bit and I found your earlier v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241015182637.955753-3-quic_rajkbhag@quicinc.com/

which confirms:
1. DTS not following coding style, so not possible to accept
2. Driver relying on that exact DTS, so not really working.

Please post in separate series updated DTS, after fixing all the issues
pointed out by DTS coding style.

Best regards,
