Usually, yes. But this whole binding would need update. It has a few optional
properties and none of them is tied to any compatible. Additionally, if I do
it as you suggest, then Robs automatic test will report the issue, because
existing H6 based boards won't match this binding anymore. I would much rather
send follow up patch which clears up all optional properties.

Best regards,
