I honestly don't have anything meaningful to add in the changelog, and
looking at similar commits under Documentation/devicetree/bindings/ that
just add a new binding, they have a very similar changelog as well (see
204d94e63e22, 772bf73ed4dc, and b805c403c859 for example).

While I could add meaningless text which basically copies the subject
line, I don't think it will solve the concern you're pointing out here.

There is a lot of documentation for the fTPM driver which is listed in
the following patch, but it's not relevant to this patch at all.
