How about mentioning it in bindings documentation?

Ahh, I get it. Then I guess you should also do of_node_get() and
of_node_put()... and use kstrdup_const(). Looks good but I am not
familiar with overlays and life-cycle of OF nodes (documentation for the
life-cycle is a todo list item: Documentation/devicetree/todo.txt).
