[PATCH v2 2/2] input: rotary-encoder: Add 'on-each-step' to binding documentation

[Ezequiel Garcia]

The driver now supports a new mode to handle the interruptions generated
by the device: on this new mode an input event is generated on each step
(i.e. on each IRQ). Therefore, add a new DT property, to select the
mode: 'rotary-encoder,on-each-step'.

I'm not at all happy with this DT binding as it's way to customized
for the current driver. For instance, if we want to support mapping
key events (or better arbitrary linux-input event types) it seems
there's no easy way to fix the binding.

Maybe a better way of handling the different 'modes' is through
compatible strings?

I'm not really sure, so I hope the DT guys have some comment on this.
