Yes, that's one concern of mine... I already can imagine someone
suggesting adding conditionals to the power sequence data. Perhaps also
direct memory read/writes so you can twiddle registers directly. And so
on. Where's the limit what it should contain? Can we soon write full
drivers with the DT data? =)
