All headers from 'include/dt-bindings/' must be verified by checkpatch
together with Documentation bindings, because all of them are part of the
whole DT bindings system.

The requirement is dual licensed and matching pattern:
    /GPL-2\.0(?:-only|-or-later|\+)? (?:OR|or) BSD-2-Clause/

The issue was found during patch review:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230313201259.19998-4-ddrokosov@sberdevices.ru/
