Same here, I'd say.... :-)

Hmm, comments!

....speaking of commenting, should we at least suggest to use C-style comments?

Since this describes vendor-specific properties and vendor prefixes as well
as standard properties, I think it would be clearer if we use something more
complex that actually contains those as an example.

There's a few. One is MediaTek:

	vdo1_rdma0: dma-controller@...04000 {
		compatible = "mediatek,mt8195-vdo1-rdma";
		reg = <0 0x1c104000 0 0x1000>;
		#dma-cells = <1>;
		clocks = <&vdosys1 CLK_VDO1_MDP_RDMA0>;
		interrupts = <GIC_SPI 495 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH 0>;
		iommus = <&iommu_vdo M4U_PORT_L2_MDP_RDMA0>;
		power-domains = <&spm MT8195_POWER_DOMAIN_VDOSYS1>;
		mediatek,gce-client-reg = <&gce0 SUBSYS_1c10XXXX 0x4000 0x1000>;
	};

...or other one can be nVidia:

	mipi: mipi@...e3000 {
		compatible = "nvidia,tegra210-mipi";
		reg = <0x0 0x700e3000 0x0 0x100>;
		clocks = <&tegra_car TEGRA210_CLK_MIPI_CAL>;
		clock-names = "mipi-cal";
		power-domains = <&pd_sor>;
		#nvidia,mipi-calibrate-cells = <1>;
	};

...or we could make an example out of fantasy, which could work even better
as far as describing goes.

	/* SoC DTSI */

	device_node: device-class@...9abc {
		compatible = "vendor,device";
		reg = <0 0x06789abc 0 0xa123>;
		ranges = <0 0 0x6789abc 0x1000>;
		#dma-cells = <1>;
		clocks = <&clock_controller SOC_CLOCK>;
		clock-names = "dev-clk";
		#vendor,custom-cells = <2>;
		status = "disabled";

		child_node: child-class@100 {
			reg = <0x100 0x200>;
			/* ... */
		};
	};

	/* Board DTS */

	&device_node {
		device-supply = <&board_vreg1>;
		status = "okay";
	}

There's a double space here, it was probably unintentional.
