Document the ir-spi driver's binding which is a IR led driven through the SPI line.

The hardware is just an LED though and bindings describe h/w. What you are using it for doesn't really matter. You only need to know it's an IR led.
Besides all the transmitters have an LED but still they are media devices. This is a bit special because it's so simple that the only hardware left is the LED itself, but still it's a media remote controller.quoted

If being more specific is helpful, then I'm all for that, but perhaps spi-ir-led. (Trying to be consistent in naming with gpio-leds).As I mentioned above, all transmitters have an LED, but they do not have the 'led' name. "ir-spi" is coherent with the device driver name and the driver name is coherent with the media/rc driver's naming.
The driver name is irrelevant to the binding. [...]
If it's OK for you, I would keep the name and documentation path and fix the rest. Please let me know if I'm missing something :)
It's not OK for me. Rob -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe devicetree" in the body of a message to majordomo-u79uwXL29TY76Z2rM5mHXA@public.gmane.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
