Yeah, I know. I proposed a patch switching to dev_dbg. If it's so
annoying and implies adding superfluous properties to DT, maybe it is
worth to add a fixes tag to the dev_dbg patch and backport it to stable
kernels?

Your patch looks fine. I guess the vendor specific properties shall be
last if you keep them, see:

If you remove the vendor properties or reorder them, one can add:
