You are telling me where I can find a file that is added in this commit?
All this description of what the h/w block does should go into the binding doc.

reg-names should be optional. Also you have the order different from
reg. Be consistent as to what is the correct order.

values of what? This needs a better name.

reserved what? This needs a better name and description.

What does the property contain? What's a channel in this context?

This is a child node? Make that clear and separate the description for
each node.

I probably have other comments, but address the above first.
