[PATCH v3 05/12] doc/bindings: Update Layerscape PCIe devicetree binding to be more flexible

Update the definition of the Layerscape PCI compatible string to be more
flexible, using <soc-name>, so the same binding definition is applicable to
multiple SoCs.

 Freescale Layerscape PCIe controller
 
-This PCIe host controller is based on the Synopsis Designware PCIe IP
+This PCIe host controller is based on the Synopsys Designware PCIe IP
 and thus inherits all the common properties defined in designware-pcie.txt.
 
+Note that since this controller derives its clocks from the Reset
+Configuration Word (RCW) which is used to describe the PLL settings at
+the time of chip-reset, the 'clocks' and 'clock-names' properties from
+'designware-pcie.txt' are optional for this controller.
+
+Also as per the available Reference Manuals, there is no specific 'version'
+register available in the Freescale PCIe controller register set,
+which can allow determining the underlying Designware PCIe controller version
+information.
+
 Required properties:
-- compatible: should contain the platform identifier such as "fsl,ls1021a-pcie"
+- compatible: should contain the platform identifier such as "fsl,<soc-name>-pcie",
+  "snps,dw-pcie".
 - reg: base addresses and lengths of the PCIe controller
 - interrupts: A list of interrupt outputs of the controller. Must contain an
   entry for each entry in the interrupt-names property.
