Hi,

We are not a platform device driver, there is no
of_device_id defined in my driver. In other word,
my driver will not bind against devices whose compatible
is "loongson,ls7a1000-dc". We just parse the device tree
actively, find necessary information of interest.

What's the meaning of dt-bindings by definition ?
In this case, can I use the word "dt-bindings" in the commit title?

I want to follow the conventions, but get some push back,
Krzysztof say that he can not see any bindings, these are not bindings.
