+Allwinner sun8i R40/V40/T3 SoC PWM controller
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible: Should be one of:
+    - "allwinner,sun8i-r40-pwm"
+  - reg: Physical base address and length of the controller's registers
+  - interrupts: Should contain interrupt.
+  - clocks: From common clock binding, handle to the parent clock.
+  - clock-names: Must contain the clock names described just above.
+  - pwm-channels: PWM channels of the controller.
+  - #pwm-cells: Should be 3. See pwm.txt in this directory for a description of
+    the cells format.
I wonder why "interrupts" is needed here. I guess this is only needed
for waveform capture? Is this only "optional"? The driver doesn't use
it.

Apart from this interrupts property this is all pretty standard and I
wonder if we could merge several documents into one.

For example Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pwm/pwm-st.txt looks
identically apart from "pwm-channels" being called "st,pwm-num-chan"
there. (It even has an interrupts property. Should the st driver move to
"pwm-channels", too?)

Best regards
Uwe
