I think the binding should either always use names as the key, or use
indices in interrupts as the key. Hence, I'd word that more like:

- interrupt-names: either the single entry "combined" representing a
			combined interrupt output (CLCDINTR), or the
			four entries "mbe", "vcomp", "lnbu", "fuf"
			representing the individual CLCDMBEINTR,
			CLCDVCOMPINTR, CLCDLNBUINTR, CLCDFUFINTR
			interrupts.
- interrupts: contains an interrupt specifier for each entry in
		 interrupt-names.

I assume those are the raw values that go into the HW?

The indentation of the introductory text seems a little odd. Do we
really need so many examples?

If the framebuffer is part of /memory, what happens then? Is the address
not fixed (so the HW isn't yet set up) and hence a driver should
allocate it?
