Hi Guillaume,

I know this has already been merged, but I figured here was an OK place
to note (inline):

^^ This file name implies we're talking about a base "arm,mali-midgard"
compatible property.

But it's not listed here.

And it *is* used here in this example.

So, should it be used/documented or not?
