Yes, you now have extra code in future Linux kernels that works around the problem. But other consumers of device trees (U-Boot, other OSes) will have to add similar code or keep using older device trees. And even then it will still cause frustration for users that want to run older kernels. I do understand that it is sometimes necessary to change device tree bindings. But changes like this one just cause a lot of pain without a significant technical benefit.
