Hi Florian,

I haven't kept up with the new yaml format, so not entirely sure I
know what I'm talking about yet, but here are a few comments:

It looks like interrupts-extended was removed from the new docs, I'm
assuming that was intentional?

While it's not necessary while this is only one line, consider adding

This next block could get formatted strangely with '>'; recommend
using '|' instead

Need to add required property "brcm,gpio-bank-widths"

Not really related to this patch, but I should probably update this
entry to reflect current reality. Should that be you and/or Doug?
