Ok, I'll improve this property documentation.

I thought it was the opposite. That a DT binding document has to be added along
with the first user of the binding but I'll separate the DT doc in another patch
then if that is the right thing to do.

Thanks a lot for all your suggestions, I'll wait a little to see if there is
more feedback and repost a v3 addressing all the issues you pointed out.

Best regards,
Javier
