Also:

A nit, subject: drop second/last, redundant "binding support". The
"dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings.
See also:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.17-rc3/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.rst#L18

And you cannot add support for bindings. The DT schema or some kernel
Makefile gave that support, not this file.

I guess Rob was fine with this, so let's keep it in this file.
