Thank you for your patch. There is something to discuss/improve.

Dual license please.

Please run scripts/checkpatch.pl and fix reported warnings. Some
warnings can be ignored, but the code here looks like it needs a fix.
Feel free to get in touch if the warning is not clear.

It does not look like you tested the bindings, at least after quick
look. Please run `make dt_binding_check` (see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.rst for instructions).
Maybe you need to update your dtschema and yamllint.

Missing vendor prefix in vendor-prefixes.yaml

maxItems: 1

Drop names, useless for one entry with generic name.

Drop description, it's obvious.

Drop description, it's obvious.

Missing vendor prefix (unless it is a common property), missing units
suffix in property name (-us). It's not a list. Why this should be a
hardware property?

Blank line

Four items and each 1 or 4? so <4>, <1>, and what else? Please provide
example for this.

Drop this one, should not be needed.

Use 4 spaces for example indentation. Not 6.

Node names should be generic. See also explanation and list of examples
in DT specification:

OK, here is the example. You did not test it.
