Add bindings for the Chromium EC HWMON. The Chromium EC HWMON
allows monitoring of temperature sensors and fans attached to the
EC.

This is sufficient for all devices? I don't see that DT provides 
anything here other than instantiating a device, but the parent device 
can just as easily do that.

The parent driver (drivers/mfd/cros_ec_i2c.c) calls cros_ec_register(),
which uses uses of_platform_populate() to populate all sub-devices.
There are various examples in the dts files (look for "google,cros-ec").
Does it really make sense to start a second method for instantiating
sub-devices ?

Thanks,

Okay, I suppose not. That wasn't clear from the example.

Do you want me to clarify that in the example somehow?

+Chromium Embedded Controller EC temperature and fan control
+-----------------------------------------------------------
+
+Google's Chromium EC HWMON is a hwmon implemented byimplemented by the Chromium EC
+firmware attached to the Embedded Controller (EC) and controlled via a host-command
+interface.
+
+An EC HWMON node should be only found as a sub-node of the EC node (see
+Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/cros-ec.txt).
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible: Must contain "google,cros-ec-hwmon"
+
+Example:
+	embedded-controller@1e {
+		reg = <0x1e>;
+		compatible = "google,cros-ec-i2c";
+		interrupts = <0 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_LOW>;
+		interrupt-parent = <&gpio0>;
+
+		hwmon {
+			compatible = "google,cros-ec-hwmon";
+		};
+};
