Hi,

This is usually what I do for all patches series, but possible I have
missed some person

Originally, it was just to write a simple sentence with words... it
gives context, you know...

Like here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?id=7647204c2e81b28b4a7c4eec7d539f998d48eaf0
or here: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git/commit/?id=dd49cbedde8a0f1e0d09698f9cad791d37a8e03e

But honestly, I don't want to debate about this, yes I can remove
redundant "devicetree bindings documentation" ^^

Well, it is the dt-bindings for an RTC block ? suppose tomorrow we
have an ethernet block specific to the SoC SSD202D, it should be
"mstar,ssd202d-ethernet" , how do you make
the difference if you just put "mstar,sd202d" ? Plus a lot of rtc
dt-bindings have this suffix (when it is not an IP name). This is
exactly the case for rtc-msc313e and it was not an issue.

There is currently no interrupt right now, we have not yet the irqchip
code for handling the alarm irq of this rtc block.
