This one is on my list of binding files to convert fairly soon
so I'm fine with this going in whilst it's still in txt form.
The addition of reg here shows up a quirk of this binding. We
originally introduced it to specify differential pairs, hence
the @ can refer to the first value of diff-channels instead
of reg. Hopefully I'll remember to clarify that when doing the
yaml conversion.
The series looks good to me, but given timing it won't make the
merge window for the coming cycle.
+CC Rob and the dt list.
