Miquel Raynal 98eb05dc99 Revert "dt-bindings: marvell,prestera: Add description for device-tree bindings" 
This reverts commit 40acc05271.

marvell,prestera.txt is an old file describing the old Alleycat3
standalone switches. The commit mentioned above actually hacked these
bindings to add support for a device tree property for a more modern
version of the IP connected over PCI, using only the generic compatible
in order to retrieve the device node from the prestera driver to read
one static property.

The problematic property discussed here is "base-mac-provider". The
original intent was to point to a nvmem device which could produce the
relevant nvmem-cell. This property has never been acked by DT
maintainers and fails all the layering that has been brought with the nvmem
bindings by pointing at a nvmem producer, bypassing the existing nvmem
bindings, rather than a nvmem cell directly. Furthermore, the property
cannot even be used upstream because it expected the ONIE tlv driver to
produce a specific cell, driver which used nacked bindings and thus was
never merged, replaced by a more integrated concept: the nvmem-layout.

So let's forget about this temporary addition, safely avoiding the need
for any backward compatibility handling. A new (yaml) binding file will
be brought with the prestera bindings, and there we will actually
include a description of the modern IP over PCI, including the right way
to point to a nvmem cell.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
