  Add bindings for I2C Address Translator. Only one property is added,
'i2c-alias-pool', which can be used in the bindings for the device that
supports ATR.

+description:
+  An I2C Address Translator (ATR) is a device with an I2C slave parent
+  ("upstream") port and N I2C master child ("downstream") ports, and
+  forwards transactions from upstream to the appropriate downstream port
+  with a modified slave address. The address used on the parent bus is
+  called the "alias" and is (potentially) different from the physical
+  slave address of the child bus. Address translation is done by the
+  hardware.

+    description:
+      I2C alias pool is a pool of I2C addresses on the main I2C bus that can be
+      used to access the remote peripherals on the serializer's I2C bus. The
+      addresses must be available, not used by any other peripheral. Each
+      remote peripheral is assigned an alias from the pool, and transactions to
+      that address will be forwarded to the remote peripheral, with the address
+      translated to the remote peripheral's real address. This property is not
+      needed if there are no I2C addressable remote peripherals.
