This is documenting device tree binding for
I2C based TPM, similar concept which being used
for virtual TPM on POWER7 and POWER8 systems running PowerVM.

+Device Tree Bindings for I2C based Trusted Platform Module(TPM)
+---------------------------------------------------------------
+
+This node describes a TPM device connected to Processor on i2c bus.
+
+Required properties:
+
+- compatible : 'manufacturer,model'
+- label : represents device type
+- linux,sml-base : base address of the Event Log. It is a physical address.
+		   sml stands for shared memory log.
+- linux,sml-size : size of the memory allocated for the Event Log.
+
+Optional properties:
+
+- status: indicates whether the device is enabled or disabled. "okay" for
+          enabled and "disabled" for disabled.
+
+Example
+-------
+
+tpm@57 {
+	reg = <0x57>;
+	label = "tpm";
+	compatible = "nuvoton,npct650", "nuvoton,npct601";
+	linux,sml-base = <0x7f 0xfd450000>;
+	linux,sml-size = <0x10000>;
+	status = "okay";
+};
I would rather name the fields event-log-base and event-log-size. They
would be much more readable and obvious names.

Also, enabled should be "enabled", not "okay".
No, okay is correct. But as I mentioned, don't document it here.
