Binding document please.

I have some basic comments below, but without a description of what the
properties mean, it's difficult to provide any meaningful review.

Use of_property_read_bool.

This looks nothing like the standard gpio bindings. What _exactly_ is
this property describing?

If this is not using the standard gpio bindings then this should be
renamed.

Either way this must be documented.

Similarly this does not look right for parsing a standard -gpios property.

And again, this doesn't look right.

Thanks,
