dt: Move device tree documentation out of powerpc directory
The device tree is used by more than just PowerPC. Make the documentation
directory available to all.
v2: reorganized files while moving to create arch and driver specific
directories.

For this +discussion, it is assumed that the system's SPI controller is in +SPI master mode. This binding does not describe SPI controllers +in slave mode. + +The SPI master node requires the following properties: +- #address-cells - number of cells required to define a chip select + address on the SPI bus. +- #size-cells - should be zero. +- compatible - name of SPI bus controller following generic names + recommended practice. +No other properties are required in the SPI bus node. It is assumed +that a driver for an SPI bus device will understand that it is an SPI bus. +However, the binding does not attempt to define the specific method for +assigning chip select numbers. Since SPI chip select configuration is +flexible and non-standardized, it is left out of this binding with the +assumption that board specific platform code will be used to manage +chip selects.
