I don't see your source of confusion: i am running it with kernel 6.12
and it works, but last i checked the current kernel is not version
6.12... so i had to rebuild it for the current kernel and i did it
with help from an LLM. And also i ran the checks for the dt part,
OpenWRT build system couldn't care less that i didn't even register the
bindings, but i know bindings maintainer care about it.

The original code is Broadcom's. You can also ask Broadcom directly if
this is correct/sane for them.
