Document the dt bindings drivers are using.

I will let maintainers weigh in here but if this is new this should probably be in the yaml format to avoid conversion in the future

+* ROHM BD71828 Power Management Integrated Circuit bindings
+
+BD71828GW is a single-chip power management IC for battery-powered portable
+devices. The IC integrates 7 buck converters, 7 LDOs, and a 1500 mA single-cell
+linear charger. Also included is a Coulomb counter, a real-time clock (RTC),
+and a 32.768 kHz clock gate.
+
+Required properties:
+ - compatible : Should be "rohm,bd71828".
+ - reg : I2C slave address.
+ - interrupt-parent : Phandle to the parent interrupt controller.
+ - interrupts : The interrupt line the device is connected to.
+ - clocks : The parent clock connected to PMIC.
+ - #clock-cells : Should be 0.
+ - regulators : List of child nodes that specify the
+ regulators. Please see
+ ../regulator/rohm,bd71828-regulator.txt
+ - gpio-controller : To indicate BD71828 acts as a GPIO controller.
+ - #gpio-cells : Should be 2. The first cell is the pin number
+ and the second cell is used to specify flags.
+ See ../gpio/gpio.txt for more information.
+
+The BD71828 RUN state is divided into 4 configurable run-levels named RUN0,
+RUN1, RUN2 and RUN3. Bucks 1, 2, 6 and 7 can be either controlled individually
+via I2C, or some/all of them can be bound to run-levels and controlled as a
+group. If bucks are controlled individually these run-levels are ignored. See
+../regulator/rohm,bd71828-regulator.txt for how to define regulator voltages
The rohm,bd71828-regulator.txt should be yaml if the maintainers want it that way.
+for run-levels. Run-levels can be changed by I2C or GPIO depending on PMIC's OTP
+configuration.
+
+Optional properties:
+- clock-output-names : Should contain name for output clock.
+- rohm,dvs-vsel-gpios : GPIOs used to control PMIC run-levels. Should
+ describe two GPIOs. (See run-level control in
+ data-sheet). If this property is omitted but
+ some bucks are marked to be controlled by
+ run-levels - then OTP option allowing
+ run-level control via I2C is assumed.
+- gpio-reserved-ranges : Usage of GPIO pins can be changed via OTP.
+ This property can be used to mark the pins
+ which should not be configured for GPIO.
+ Please see the ../gpio/gpio.txt for more
+ information.
+
+Example:

This example does not look right.

I see that I2C is referenced above so the example could look like this

osc: oscillator {
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ compatible = "fixed-clock";
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ #clock-cells = <1>;
 clock-frequency = <32768>;
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ clock-output-names = "osc";
ÂÂÂÂÂÂÂ };

This is an external oscillator and is not really part of the pmic itself. I am not sure you even need to define that since it is not part of the pmic.

i2c {

ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ pmic@4b {

ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ [...]

ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ };

};
