Add the recommended chassis-type root node property so userspace can

Maybe the Link tag should be converted into a "[1]" reference?
To me, this is more like a reference for this DT addition.

In general, references can also be placed closer to the contents
they back up, which isn't possible with Link tags, but of course
that doesn't matter much in this case.

I generally use the "[1]" format when linking to specific claims, which
I could've done wrt the "recommended". But I considered this a general
background link and then I prefer to do it via a Link tag.

If requested by a maintainer I'll change it ofc, but otherwise I prefer
to keep it as is.

Indeed, in this case it's pretty much irrelevant which format is used.
In fact, it may look nicer to use a Link tag, because there are only
a few lines in the patch description in total. :)

My comment was more about longer commit/patch descriptions with multiple
references, which should benefit from placing references closer to the
backed-up contents using the "[*]" layout, instead of relying on Link
tags to bunch it all together at the end of the description.
