Not really useful. What we like to see is what changed. Maintainers have 
short memories and don't remember what they said previously (unless 
comments are ignored).

Where's the port? Didn't you previously say it was optional?

Well I wanted to get rid of anything except bare minimal that is required for
that driver.

What I did miss in that clean-up is description above.
In particular +ACI-Required subnodes+ACI- section that still lists +ACI-port+ACI-.

And frankly now I'm a bit lost with what should I put in that binding
description and what should not. Any comments here are much appreciated.
