docs: dt: submitting-patches: add commit subject prefix in reversed format

Browse source 
ASoC, media, regulators and SPI subsystems prefer commits starting with
subsystem name (e.g. "spi: dt-bindings:"), so document this to avoid
confusing contributors.

@ -15,6 +15,11 @@ I. For patch submitters
"dt-bindings: <binding dir>: ..."
Few subsystems, like ASoC, media, regulators and SPI, expect reverse order
of the prefixes::
"<binding dir>: dt-bindings: ..."
The 80 characters of the subject are precious. It is recommended to not
use "Documentation" or "doc" because that is implied. All bindings are
docs. Repeating "binding" again should also be avoided.
