I'm a bit confused on the naming. Certainly the binding should have
separate entries for each supported part, rather than a group one
for their i2cxl naming. Having said that they do have a wide
range of parts with only the one datasheet.
Rob, what do you think? Go with this i2cxl naming
or list the individual supported parts?
mb1202, mb1212, mb1222, mb1232, mb1242, mb7040,
mb7137?
I'm loving that the last one is called the trashsonar ;)
A few minor bits inline.
Thanks,
Jonathan

A cross reference to the i2c docs is always nice.

This isn't a standard gpio name - it's purpose is definitely device
specific so give it a vendor prefix.
