The use of syscons is growing, lets collate them in their own part of
the bindings tree.

I'm not so sure this is the right direction. syscon usage is pretty much?
spread throughout the tree.
This patch was created based on my interpretation of Lee's feedback
here:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2016/11/18/650

Lee's next email in the chain poked Arnd for an opinion, but Arnd
didn't reply.

I don't mind. I moved these bindings separately so we could just drop
the patch if there was push-back. If we drop the whole idea I'll need
to apply a small fix to patch 5/6 to avoid creating the syscon
subdirectory.
The sub-directory is a good idea for drivers who are *solely* syscon
based.
Yes, I wasn't saying otherwise, just commenting on my motivation and
approach.

As far as I can tell all of the bindings I move here describe solely
syscon-based devices.

Cheers,

Andrew
