Thanks Jeremy and Krzysztof,

If I modify the commit message as follows, would that make it clearer?

The AST2600 I2C controller introduces a completely new register map and
Separate control/target register sets, unlike the mixed layout used in
AST2400/AST2500. In addition, at new AST2600 configuration registers
and transfer modes require new DT properties, which are incompatible
with existing bindings. Therefore, this patch creates a dedicated binding
file for AST2600 to properly describe these new hardware capabilities.
