Well in that case, this is not part of the binding documentation, but
that can be a good idea to update the documentation indeed.

A little bit of comment and documentation will never hurt anybody and
will not have any impact on the DTB size. If that can save us some time
to avoid googling to know what device we are taking about, it is already
better than nothing.
