Basically this extends
c58299aa8754 "kbuild: create an "include chroot" for DT bindings" for
ARC where we extensively use Device Tree and there're good reasons
to use DT bindings, especially if those are required.

Otherwise on attempt to compile .dts with something like:
-------------------->8---------------------
 #include <dt-bindings/net/ti-dp83867.h>
-------------------->8---------------------

we inevitably see this compilation failure:
-------------------->8---------------------
arch/arc/boot/dts/hsdk.dts:16:40: fatal error: dt-bindings/net/ti-dp83867.h: No such file or directory
 #include <dt-bindings/net/ti-dp83867.h>
                                        ^
compilation terminated.
-------------------->8---------------------

I'm OK with adding this to ARC, but won't it be nicer to have a generic include 
helper instead to avoid boilerplate addition in multiple places ?

I believe commit d5d332d3f7e8 ("devicetree: Move include prefixes from
arch to separate directory") does what you want.

Indeed that helps!
Thanks a lot for the pointer!
