Sure, here is temporary branch with 4 last commits demonstrating
mentioned issues (when property name contains comma):
https://git.linaro.org/people/grzegorz.jaszczyk/linux.git/log/?h=ti-pruss-binding-issue

The last commit gets rid of the comma from properties names which
successfully w/a the problem.

Please note that those are only TEMP commits which demonstrates the
mentioned issue. I've put error logs with some notes in commit log to
ease understanding what issues are seen when.

Thank you in advance,
Grzegorz
