Nothing in this is specific to ICP, so the subject should be updated.

This device is a SPI (or SPI like?) interface. So you have some sort of 
of FPGA logic in between the cpu and ds1302. The DT should have a node 
for the controller and then the ds1302 as a child of it. A full blown 
SPI driver may be overkill here, but that's a separate discussion from 
the DT binding.
