Remove the separate DT binding document file for maxim,max77802 and
move all information to maxim,max77686 DT binding document.
Now, I wonder if this is the correct approach. A system integrator is
probably going to search for the bindings of the chip that is present
in their system. For example there are different DT bindings docs for
both the max77686 and max77802 PMIC even when support is implemented
by the same driver (drivers/mfd/max77686.c).

But maybe I'm wrong so I'll let people with more DT experience to say
if merging the bindings docs in a single one is the correct approach.
I personally prefer having one binding document for all devices because
essentially it is almost the same device. For looking up I use git grep
with compatible string (or device name) so it does not matter, IMHO.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
