Other way, like for example Mark Brown prefers, is: i2c: dt-bindings: It would be fine as well, but the point is that you did not include the dt-bindings prefix here at all and almost always I ignore all such emails. >>> 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) >>> >>> diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c.txt b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c.txt >>> index fc3dd7ec0445..5f7bdf4851e8 100644 >>> --- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c.txt >>> +++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/i2c/i2c.txt >>> @@ -72,6 +72,10 @@ wants to support one of the below features, it should adapt these bindings. >>> this information to adapt power management to keep the arbitration awake >>> all the time, for example.

Then you need to come up with better description. :) By system I understood here Operating System, therefore a Software piece or pieces. Bindings should not rather focus on hardware instead of referencing software. Software actually not matter for the bindings... There is quite clear distinction between hardware and operating system... Can you explain why do you think "bus being completely described" is not a hardware description? Bindings and DTS describe hardware, so one of parts of such description is whether nodes and other properties are present. If all child nodes are present in DT - no-detect - and this is a purely hardware point of view. No software here. Best regards, Krzysztof
