I think the above text is not relevant, DT binding is not supposed
to depend on any OS. Instead I would just put here something like:
"This patch adds DT binding documentation for Exynos4415 SoC system
clock controllers."

Perhaps we should change description here to something along the lines of:
- "samsung,exynos4415-cmu" - for the main system clocks controller
(CMU_LEFTBUS, CMU_RIGHTBUS, CMU_TOP, CMU_CPU clock domains),

This seems unclear, how about
- "samsung,exynos4415-cmu-dmc" - for the Exynos4415 SoC DRAM Memory
Controller (DMC) domain clock controller.

I think we could omit those example snippets, it's all generic stuff and
there is already plenty examples in descriptions of the DT binding for
other SoCs.
