Yes, I guess separating the concept of defining common flags and which
devices use them is good. And then indeed individual devices need to
define which of the common flags they support. I'd still like to see the
*definition* of those common flags in some central place (i.e. pwm.txt
or a header that defines constants for it), and the other device
bindings simply reference that for the actual definitions.
