Rob, did you have any further feedback for Niklas based on his binding proposal?

Or should we merge the qcom,level binding for now (since I though we agreed
'reg' is probably not the right fit for it) and then discuss further on how to
describe the legacy platforms which require more details like fuse bindings?
Note that the current platform (sdm845) only needs the qcom,level binding.
What Niklas is proposing is for describing the older SoCs.
