You didn't answer my question about adding documentation...

An example driver which adds a custom compatible string and doesn't 
document it:
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/a74e6a014c9d4d4161061f770c9b4f98372ac778/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/clock/sprd%2Csc9863a-clk.yaml#L90

You're missing a "};", so I'm not sure if you want me to go this way (1):
syscon {
	compatible = "brcm,bcm6328-gpio-regs", "syscon", "simple-mfd";
	reg = <0x10000080 0x80>;
	ranges = <0 0x10000080 0x80>;

	gpio: gpio@0 {
		compatible = "brcm,bcm6328-gpio";
		reg = <0x0 0x10>;

		data = <0xc>;
		dirout = <0x4>;

		gpio-controller;
		gpio-ranges = <&pinctrl 0 0 32>;
		#gpio-cells = <2>;
	};

	pinctrl: pinctrl@18 {
		compatible = "brcm,bcm6328-pinctrl";
		reg = <0x18 0x10>;

		foo-pins {};
		...
	};
};

Or this way (2):
syscon {
	compatible = "brcm,bcm6328-gpio-regs", "syscon", "simple-mfd";
	reg = <0x10000080 0x80>;
	ranges = <0 0x10000080 0x80>;

	pinctrl: pinctrl@18 {
		compatible = "brcm,bcm6328-pinctrl";
		reg = <0x0 0x28>;

		gpio: gpio@0 {
			compatible = "brcm,bcm6328-gpio";
			reg = <0x0 0x10>;

			data = <0xc>;
			dirout = <0x4>;

			gpio-controller;
			gpio-ranges = <&pinctrl 0 0 32>;
			#gpio-cells = <2>;
		};

		foo-pins {};
		...
	};
};
