... and finally (apologies for making it in three emails, checkpatch
warnings come from different toolset): your subject is pretty breaking
every standard rule.

It's redundant, not informative in various ways. It misses proper
prefix, it misses even basic description WHAT. Everything can be a "new
content".

Please use subject prefixes matching the subsystem. You can get them for
example with `git log --oneline -- DIRECTORY_OR_FILE` on the directory
your patch is touching. For bindings, the preferred subjects are
explained here:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.html#i-for-patch-submitters

Please do not use "This commit/patch/change", but imperative mood. See
longer explanation here:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.16/source/Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst#L94

Drop second/last, redundant "bindings". The "dt-bindings" prefix is
already stating that these are bindings.

And obviously "file" is pointless. Can you add content NOT to a file?
Like add it to a directory?
