As mentioned before, your usage of devicetree information is clearly
outside the scope for devicetree data.

One clear guideline for devicetree data is that it is supposed to be usable
across multiple operating systems. Your proposal is clearly operating system
and even subsystem specific. It does _not_ describe hardware.

NACK.
