I suggest deleting these three properties and replacing them with the following

aspeed,peci-bit-time:
        description:
          The bit time driven by PECI controller. The unit of the value is Hz.
    minimum: 2000
    maximum: 1000000

And the driver should use this property to caculate the appropriate clock-divider,
msg-timing and addr-timing, instead of exposing hardware registers to dts.
