but all this feels wrong for me.

First of all, this yaml description is not human friendly and not intuitive at all,
and secondly with this conversion we loose all the comments about the SoC family relationship
with the compatible strings !

I really understand the point to have automated verification, but really it's a pain to read
(I can't imagine newcomers... the actual DT bindings are already hard to read...) and
I feel it will be a real pain to write !

Can't we mix an "humam text" with a "yaml" part on a same document ? we are in 2018 (nearly 2019),
and it should be easy to extract a yaml description from a text document without pain and
keep all the human description, no ?

What will be the case for all the bindings with ASCII art to describe the architecture of the
HW ? will you simply drop it to replace it with cold yaml description ?
