[PATCH v13 6/8] Documentation: bindings: document the sub-nodes AHCI bindings

[Antoine TÃnart]

The libahci now allows to use multiple PHYs and to represent each port
as a sub-node. Add these bindings to the documentation.

 SATA nodes are defined to describe on-chip Serial ATA controllers.
 Each SATA controller should have its own node.
 
+It is possible, but not required, to represent each port as a sub-node.
+It allows to enable each port independently when dealing with multiple
+PHYs.
