To be even more specific, if we already have some DT binding without any
clocks and reg properties, we can't just suddenly change them from now
on to be "required". But they can still be "optional" and this will not
break the ABI, right? The old DT is still valid and the QoS will be
active when the new properties are present and this is handled properly
by the driver.
