SATA nodes are defined to describe on-chip Serial ATA controllers.
Each SATA controller should have its own node.
+It is possible, but not required, to represent each port as a sub-node.
+It allows to enable each port independently when dealing with multiple
+PHYs.

Required properties:
- compatible : compatible list, one of "snps,spear-ahci",
"snps,exynos5440-ahci", "ibm,476gtr-ahci",
"allwinner,sun4i-a10-ahci", "fsl,imx53-ahci"
- "fsl,imx6q-ahci" or "snps,dwc-ahci"

- reg : <registers mapping>

The libahci now allows to use multiple PHYs and to represent each port as a sub-node. Add these bindings to the documentation.
