power: reset: ltc2952: document optional trigger behavior
Document the fact that the trigger signal is now optional, and describe the behavior when this is used. While at it, fix a typo, and paraphrase a sentence to be less platform specific. Signed-off-by: Frans Klaver <frans.klaver@xsens.com> Signed-off-by: Sebastian Reichel <sre@kernel.org>

Binding for the LTC2952 PowerPath controller
This chip is used to externally trigger a system shut down. Once the trigger has
-been sent, the chips' watchdog has to be reset to gracefully shut down.
-If the Linux systems decides to shut down it powers off the platform via the
-kill signal.
+been sent, the chip's watchdog has to be reset to gracefully shut down.
+A full powerdown can be triggered via the kill signal.
Required properties:
- compatible: Must contain: "lltc,ltc2952"
-- trigger-gpios: phandle + gpio-specifier for the GPIO connected to the
- chip's trigger line
- watchdog-gpios: phandle + gpio-specifier for the GPIO connected to the
chip's watchdog line
- kill-gpios: phandle + gpio-specifier for the GPIO connected to the
chip's kill line
+Optional properties:
+- trigger-gpios: phandle + gpio-specifier for the GPIO connected to the
+ chip's trigger line. If this property is not set, the
+ trigger function is ignored and the chip is kept alive
+ until an explicit kill signal is received
