By comparison the commit message also lists "Port Logic" and "DMA"
registers as being part of the CDM registers. Shouldn't they be part of
the bindings document as well?
Ok. I'll add them in V3 patch series.


Perhaps it'd also be a good idea to rename this property to something
more imperative, like "enable-cdm" or similar.
Ok. I'll go with "enable-cdm-check". I hope that should be fine.
