I'm not comfortable accepting a DT binding for a driver which does not
exist in Linux. As i said, there are interesting ABI issues here, and
it could be the MFD, GPIO or reset Maintainers don't accept a binding
until a Linux driver exists.

At minimum, you need an Acked-by from the GPIO Maintainer, of the
binding before this DT change is merged via MVEBU.
