You should have added a list of incremental changes (v1->v2->v3) here
otherwise there is no point in adding a patch version, we are not
supposed to remember what you have changed.

UltraNit: please move local-timer-stop here to keep the property ordering
as in the bindings.

More importantly, IIRC the idle state was not local-timer-stop in v2,
what changed in the interim ? v1->v2 the cluster idle state disappeared,
now the local timer seems to stop when it was not before (and that is
the same HW), I hope things are settled now.

Move this property as last on the list, let's keep the generic
properties first.

I guess there is no hope of seeing the cluster state restored (?).

I would like some explanation regarding local-timer-stop change, apart
from that you can add:
