NAK. It should simply be a child node of the 'syscon-controller'.

Hm, It's dilemma. The driver maintainer said ack, while you disagree.)
So the code change will be merged while the doc-part won't? Lets discuss then
to settle the issue.

Why 'syscon-reboot' can be out of syscon-controller node, while
'syscon-reboot-mode' can't? They both belong to the same usecase: save
cause id and reboot. So having similar properties-set and declaring their
nodes someplace nearby is natural. According to the driver 'syscon-reboot'
can't lack the regmap property because it's mandatory, while here you refuse
to have even optional support. Additionally in most of the cases the
'syscon-reboot' nodes aren't declared as a child of a system controller
node. Why 'syscon-reboot-mode' can't work in a similar way?

FWIW I do not merge with bindings being NAK'd by Rob.

Look at the history and you will see one was reviewed by DT
maintainers and one wasn't.

Which is what I'm asking for. Where else in the tree does it make
sense to locate the 'syscon-reboot-mode' node? Locate nodes where they
logically belong.

There's plenty of bad or "don't follow current best practice" examples
in the tree for all sorts of things. That is not a reason for doing
something in a new binding or adding to an existing one.

Alright. I see your point. What about I'd provide a sort of opposite
implementation? I could make the "regmap"-phandle reference being optional
in the !"syscon-reboot"! driver instead of adding the regmap-property
support to the "syscon-reboot-mode" driver. So if regmap property isn't
defined in the "syscon-reboot"-compatible node, the driver will try to
get a syscon regmap from the parental node as it's done in the
"syscon-reboot-mode" driver.

Seeing you think that regmap-property-based design is a bad practice in
this case, I also could mark the property as deprecated in the "syscon-reboot"
dt schema and print a warning from the "syscon-reboot" driver if one is defined.

What do you think?

That seems fine.

Depends on how many platforms will start getting warnings. I think just 
marking deprecated is enough.
