Shouldn't the node name be more general like temperature@3a?

Also generally the dt-bindings patch should go before the first use of
the compatible string.

None of the current temperature drivers have that, but it would be
nice for portability. I can prepare a patch to fix them all (a quick
check confirmed it is not consistent in pressure and light as well)

OK, will keep in mind in case of v5 to reorder the commits once again.

+* Melexis MLX90632 contactless Infra Red temperature sensor
+
+Link to datasheet: https://www.melexis.com/en/documents/documentation/datasheets/datasheet-mlx90632
+
+There are various applications for the Infra Red contactless temperature sensor
+and MLX90632 is most suitable for consumer applications where measured object
+temperature is in range between -20 to 200 degrees Celsius with relative error
+of measurement below 1 degree Celsius in object temperature range for
+industrial applications. Since it can operate and measure ambient temperature
+in range of -20 to 85 degrees Celsius it is suitable also for outdoor use.
+
+Be aware that electronics surrounding the sensor can increase ambient
+temperature. MLX90632 can be calibrated to reduce the housing effect via
+already existing EEPROM parameters.
+
+Since measured object emissivity effects Infra Red energy emitted, emissivity
+should be set before requesting the object temperature.
+
+Required properties:
+  - compatible: should be "melexis,mlx90632"
+  - reg: the I2C address of the sensor (default 0x3a)
+
+Example:
+
+mlx90632@3a {
+	compatible = "melexis,mlx90632";
+	reg = <0x3a>;
+};
