Thank you for your contribution! Sashiko AI review found 2 potential issue(s) to consider:
- [Low] The binding description violates Devicetree principles by describing software instead of hardware. It explicitly states 'The driver supports...', which is an OS-specific software description.
- [Low] The Devicetree example uses the Linux-specific subsystem name 'hwmon@40' for the node name instead of a generic functional name.

dt-bindings: hwmon: pmbus: add Delta E50SN12051 binding

This commit introduces the devicetree binding schema for the Delta E50SN12051
PMBus-compliant sensor.

This isn't a bug, but should the description focus purely on the hardware
rather than mentioning what the driver supports? Devicetree bindings are
generally expected to be OS-agnostic hardware descriptions.

Is hwmon@40 the most appropriate node name here? The devicetree specification
usually recommends using generic names that reflect the function of the
hardware, such as sensor@40, rather than OS-specific subsystem names like
hwmon.
