[PATCH v2 1/3] dt-bindings: HID: i2c-hid: Label this binding as deprecated

[Douglas Anderson]

As pointed out by Rob Herring [1], we should have a device-specific
compatible string.  This means people shouldn't be using the
"i2c-over-hid" compatible string anymore, or at least not without a
more specific compatible string before it.  Specifically:

1. For newly added devices we should just have the device-specific
   device string (no "hid-over-i2c" fallback) and infer the timings
   and hid-descr-addr from there.

2. If there's a need for a device tree to be backward compatible, we
   should list the device-specific compatible string and add the
   "hid-over-i2c" fallback and the various timings.

 * HID over I2C Device-Tree bindings
 
+WARNING: this binding is deprecated.  Instead of using this, create specific
+bindings for each hid-over-i2c device.

 HID over I2C provides support for various Human Interface Devices over the
 I2C bus. These devices can be for example touchpads, keyboards, touch screens
 or sensors.
