[PATCH] dt-bindings: mma8452: Re-word 'interrupt-names' description

[Andrey Smirnov]

Current wording in the binding documentation doesn't make it 100%
clear that only one of "INT1" and "INT2" will ever be used by the
driver and that specifying both has no advantages. Re-word it to make
this aspect a bit more explicit.

From a quick glance at the datasheet, it appears that the hardware
is capable of routing different interrupts to different pins, even
if the driver does not do so.

CTRL_REG5 has 6 different bits to set whether particular blocks have
their interrupt routed to INT1 or INT2, so it appears to be possible
to send some each way.
 
A binding is for the hardware not the driver, so if I'm right about this
the current text is correct and should be left alone.

Thanks,

Jonathan

right, please ignore my "acked-by". Thanks a lot for taking a look.
