So basically it would have been better to move the description that I
added to the c-file as "supported devices" in the device tree file?

With both commits already acked: Rob and Pavel: Should I change that?

If you both say yes, I would rename the file in the binding like
suggested and move the detailed protocol description from the driver to
the binding.

Best regards
