[v2 PATCH] docs: pmu: Improve the PMU DT bindings

[Atish Patra]

The current DT binding description is misleading and confusing. Clarify
the text and provide more examples.

-for event encoding will be cleared. If a platform directly encodes each raw PMU

 via platform hooks rather than the device tree.
