I just read it and don't understand. You don't have to have all 
properties for a driver in the node associated with the driver. The 
driver can freely look in the child nodes or anywhere else in the whole 
tree if needed. Is that what you meant?

For USB hubs we generally define child nodes for each port. Some of the 
hub bindings don't because they are incomplete. If you have a per port 
property, then the DT property belongs in the port's node.

Other way around. If it doesn't pass tests, I don't look at it. (Well, I 
do, but don't expect a reply.)

When you submit something. It's all automatic, though sometimes the 
emails are delayed. Results are always in PW within 1-2 hours (unless 
someone patch bombs us with a large series).
