From: Benjamin Gaignard <benjamin.gaignard at st.com>

Add bindings for STM32 Timer quadrature encoder.
It is a sub-node of STM32 Timer which implement the
counter part of the hardware.

+STMicroelectronics STM32 Timer quadrature encoder
+
+STM32 Timer provides quadrature encoder counter mode to detect
+angular position and direction of rotary elements,
+from IN1 and IN2 input signals.
+
+Must be a sub-node of an STM32 Timer device tree node.
+See ../mfd/stm32-timers.txt for details about the parent node.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible:		Must be "st,stm32-timer-counter".
+- pinctrl-names: 	Set to "default".
+- pinctrl-0: 		List of phandles pointing to pin configuration nodes,
+			to set IN1/IN2 pins in mode of operation for Low-Power
+			Timer input on external pin.
+
+Example:
+	timers at 40010000  {
+		compatible = "st,stm32-timers";
+		...
+		counter {
+			compatible = "st,stm32-timer-counter";
+			pinctrl-names = "default";
+			pinctrl-0 = <&tim1_in_pins>;
+		};
+	};
