This looks wrong; the kernel supports more Broadcom chips than just the bcm283[567]. I'd suggest using a regex to make sure it only matches the appropriate chips. Perhaps:

N: bcm283[567]

? That also has the advantage of matching all the bindings in other directories in Documentation/devicetree/bindings, and indeed all the drivers and DT files too.
