You were looking at the wrong bindings:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/tree/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/cadence-quadspi.txt

but yes, Linux does not do support the data edge toggling. I think there
was another QSPI patch in Linux which tried adding such property, so
check linux-mtd for it. Generic one would be great.

And no, there is no policy for pushing new props to linux first. New DT
props should ideally get approved via devicetree@vger though, but that's
about it. Also, while I tried backporting the Linux CQSPI driver to
U-Boot, but unfortunately, it turned out to be extremely difficult due
significant differences between the Linux and U-Boot SPI NOR  framework.
