Hello Hoegeun,

my last question (does this regress the case "node required, but
absent") still stands.

I don't think a construction like that exists. Either it's required, or
it's optional. "required optionally" makes no sense to me (but I'm not a
native speaker).

- Tobias

The bridge_node is optional.
I will change commit message and send ver3 patch.

Best regards,
Hoegeun



For example, In case of Exynos SoC, a bridge device such as mDNIe and
MIC could be placed between Display Controller and MIPI DSI device but
the bridge device is required optionally.
