The I3C devices without a static address can require a specific dynamic
address for priority reasons.

Let's update the binding document to make the 'assigned-address' property
valid if static address != 0 and add an example with this use case.

           ^ you mean static address == 0, right?

Yes, it makes sense to support that case and do our best to assign the
requested address after DAA has taken place by explicitly executing
SETDA.

We should probably mention that we don't provide strong guarantees
here. We will try to assign this dynamic address to the device, but if
something fails (like another device owning the address and refusing to
give it up), the actual dynamic address will be different.
This clarification can be done in a separate patch.

Indeed.

So, another patch on top of this one explaining that, right?

I would suggest to use a dynamic address, like 0x40 (mid priority), on 
ENTDAA so lowers addresses (High Priority) can be used in DT or another 
method.

What do you think about this?
