How about splitting up like this:

Documentation/powerpc/device-tree/fsl/cpm.txt
Documentation/powerpc/device-tree/fsl/cpm/uart.txt
Documentation/powerpc/device-tree/fsl/tsec.txt
Documentation/powerpc/device-tree/interrupts.txt
Documentation/powerpc/device-tree/dtb.txt

May I suggest moving it to Documentation/of-bindings/ instead?  Some
of these bindings (granted, not the fsl ones) will be used by
non-powerpc platforms (sparc, microblaze).

Good idea, but:

Don't call the bindings OF. They're not.

They are a linux-specific binding that happens to use the same data  
structures and representation that OF does.

Well... they may be Linux specific by default, but they're supposed to
be general enough that they (or at least, very small extensions)
*could* become official OF bindings, if there was still an OF group to
make them so.  It certainly should be possible to use these bindings
in a firmware which provides an OF client interface as well as in
flat-tree-only firmwares which don't.
