Per the below code, this naming detail is Linux-specific, and should go
from the binding.

I imagine there may be other properties in some cases for more than
just power management, so it may be better to say:

In some cases it may be necessary to describe non-probeable
details such as non-standard ways of powering up a device. In
such cases, child nodes for those devices will be present as
slaves of the slimbus-controller, as detailed below.

What's the point in the "slim" fallback? That seems to imply nothing
useful, and other busses don't do that.

I'm not familiar with SLIMbus, but other than the above comments this
binding looks ok to me.

sizeof(*slim) would be nicer here.

Thanks,
Mark.
