Add a DT binding for the Apple Mac System Management Controller.

Drop the second, redundant "binding" from subject. It's already in prefix.

Yet another thing that's been there from the start... how many more
things are you going to pick up in subsequent versions of the patch?
When does this stop?

In any case, taking your comment literally,

"dt-bindings: mfd: add for Apple Mac System Management Controller"

makes no sense, so presumably you want something more than that.

In any case, I see several recent cases already merged which follow
the pattern that I've used and that you've reviewed.

So this depends on other patch, so:
1. You need mention the dependency in cover letter (nothing there),
2. Re-order patches.

The GPIO cannot go separate tree and this must be explicitly communicated.

Sigh, getting an order that is sensible is really bloody difficult.

It's not. Sub-devices before the MFD. The only time that doesn't work is 
when the sub-devices put the parent MFD in their example. The solution 
there is don't do that. Just 1 complete example in the MFD schema and no 
examples in the sub-devices.

Meanwhile, I was told by Krzysztof that DT schemas must always have an
example. So, different person, different story.

Anyway, I've washed my hands of this farce with this series. I'm not
planning to post another version of it. I've had enough of this crap.
