May you kindly enlighten me why?

"lx" is used internaly and externaly in projects, publications,
contracts, etc. as common abbreviation by the Linutronix GmbH.
Therefore it was self-evident to use this abbreviation in the device
tree.

As I did not found any documented rule in the kernel documentation,
which denote a restriction for the vendor abbreviation in the device
tree bindings the decision for "lx" was clear.

A quick look into
"Documentation/devicetree/bindings/vendor-prefixes.yaml"
assured me in the decision to use "lx".
Here some example not fitting your rule:
"^ad,.*":
"^adi,.*":
"^al,.*":
"^anvo,.*":
...

In summary I would be encouraged if "lx" gets in, as it is *our*
abbreviation.
