Hey Lee,

Rob, Grant, question for you below:

We don't usually refer to the driver in binding docs as they are
supposed to be OS-agnostic.

Rob, Grant, should we be mingling implementation details (macros from
include files) with the binding documentation?  It just _seems_ wrong
too me.  But if we agree that the binding docs, the dts files, and their
includes are always kept together, I also don't see the harm...
