While it may sound totally obvious for the regular U-Boot developer to get the parameters of the bind/unbind commands from the output of 'dm tree', it did not felt straightforward to me until I was explicitly told to look there. And even when I knew the command, I did not make a direct link between the arguments of this command and the columns returned by 'dm tree'.
Several of us lost a lot of time because of that, I would like to kindly help other users by slightly improving this textual line. Unfortunately, because of how this string is used (like within the 'help' command) I cannot detail much more, but at least the pointer is there.
