But then how do you find out if there is a existing binding for a device
without searching in the kernel source tree? The binding docs are
planned to be moved out as they are not Linux specific. There needs to
be 1 location to find binding information.

I do wonder if we should have a more structured registry or database of
bindings than free form text files...
