Just describe reg in terms of reg-names, and don't bother with the
"reg_" prefix, we know this is a reg entry:
- reg: a list of address and length pairs, corresponding to entires in
reg-names
- reg-names: should contain:

Why is this not "num-lanes"? Why do you even need this?

Surely this should be an actual clock?

Why does this need to be in the binding? How does one derive the correct
value?

Likewise on both points.

NAK.
This is a driver option, and belongs on the kernel command line. It does
not describe the hardware, and does not belong in the DT.

The binding didn't describe the sub-nodes, and which properties belong
to them.
Don't use magic names. Define a new address space, and use reg to
identify lanes.

This was not described in the binding, and uses the wrong accessor. What
is this for?

Likewise.

Can't you always call syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle, then check the
return value to see if the property existed?
You clearly know that of_property_read_bool exists, why did you not use
it to read properties which are boolean?

Likewise.

As stated above, NAK for this property.

Not in the binding, and uses the wrong accessor.

As above, use reg, not magic names.
Thanks,
