Personally, I'd prefer "dt-bindings: sound: blah...", but not enough to argue with Mark about it. If that is not the prefix, then it should at least have "binding" in the subject.

The prefix of sound bindings is quite unique from other subsystems. Looking at the prefix of Documentation/devicetree/bindings/sound/ commits, I'm always confused whether it's a pure binding commit or just submitted as part of the driver patch. I feel that we kinda lose the point of having a prefix.
That's really not what's happening reliably - other subsystems also seem to have a bunch of things prefixed for the subsystem and the DT specific prefixes are all over the shop, people seem to be making them up at random. If DT binding review were something that reliably and consistently happened and didn't affect the subsystem I'd perhaps buy it but for run of the mill stuff it seems like getting things reviewed in the subsystem is more important.
