I think it is the other way around -- if the binding was documented as 
u8, then the existing DTs should use the u8 type if they are compliant 
to the binding document.

I see one board in next which uses this property and sets it to 0 , so 
this one is not affected either way:
arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/imx8mq-zii-ultra-rmb3.dts: 
swap-dx-lanes = <0>;
