[PATCH v2] dt-bindings: remoteproc: qcom: Drop types for firmware-name

From: Shawn Guo

Date: Mon Mar 09 2026 - 08:35:59 EST


The type of firmware-name is already defined by core schemas. Drop it
from individual bindings that have either a redundant definition or
an override as string type. For the later cases, constrain the number
of expected firmware names to 1.

Changes in v2:
- Add constraint of maxItems 1 for string type removal (Thanks to Krzysztof!)
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260306140306.1328719-1-shengchao.guo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
