It is preferred that bindings be a separate patch. Also, this is 2
independent features: the sysfs interface and DT properties. So that is
probably 3 patches.
Also, sysfs interfaces are supposed to be documented.

You need to test with something not 3 years old...

Where does the scale of 0-500 come from? It is tenth of a percent?
How many array entries?
