Since I'm reorganizing the binding documentation to reflect subsystems
(bindings/spi, bindings/i2c, bindings/powerpc, etc) I'd prefer to see
a separate file for each type of core.

Eventually, I'd like to define a record format for documenting
bindings that can generate searchable and crosslinked output, but I've
not spent any time looking at that seriously yet.
