Please keep the description, otherwise it would be confusing why the binding is
named marvell,mvebu-sdram-controller.yaml although it (currenly) only applies to
the Armada XP.

The L2 cache binding is already described in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/l2c2x0.yaml, so this is only for the
SDRAM.

The description does not explain why it only documents Armada XP, so it
just duplicates what is in "compatible" part of bindings. How is the
confusion removed by saying "we document currently only Armada XP"? What
changes?

The entire description (with first paragraph) might make it a derivative
work, so I would need Ack or SoB from author to relicense it (Cc: Thomas
Petazzoni).

Then perhaps the binding should be named marvell,armada-xp-sdram-
controller.yaml? It find it unlikely that support for the other SoC's
controllers will be added, given their age.

Sure, could be like this but there is no confusion here and no need to
fix anything. It is understandable and common to name bindings file as
general (e.g. for group of devices) even though only limited amount of
devices are currently documented/described. It's almost everywhere like
this, when the bindings are not complete. I don't see where is the
confusion.

Look at: arm/marvell/armada-cpu-reset.txt which mentions several SoCs
while only three compatibles are documented.
arm/marvell/armada-cpu-reset.txt has generic name and describes only one
reset controller (370) while being used on multiple SoC (370, 375, 38x,
39x). I could go like this all over the bindings...
