The binding should describe the _hardware_, not the particular driver.
Please remove any references to the 'driver'.

What hardware does this binding describe? Please focus on that.

s/_/-/ in compatible strings please.

Huh? What's this aname used for?

This looks like a filesystem name, which shouldn't be in the DT.

Likewise on all points.

s/phandle/ / -- there's a gpio-specifier too, but we may as well just
ignore the specifics of the format and leave that to the GPIO bindings.

These should all have a "-gpio" suffix, too.

I'm not sure I follow? What is this for?

Thanks,
