Remove "Device Tree Bindings". You could do the same also in the
subject, because you repeat the prefix ("dt-bindings: clk: sprd: Add
ums512 clock controller").

Put the compatible first, by convention and makes finding matching
bindings easier.

Why do you need simple-mfd for these? This looks like a regular syscon,
so usually does not come with children. What is more, why this "usual
syscon" is a separate clock controller in these bindings?

The description does not make sense. These are bindings for a clock
controller, but you say here "for this clock", so what does "this" mean
here?

Isn't reg also required? Always? Do you have examples where it is not
required? How do you configure the clocks without "reg"? I see you
copied a lot from sprd,sc9863a-clk.yaml but that file does not look correct.
You have nodes with reg but without unit address ("rpll"). These nodes
are modeled as children but they are not children - it's a workaround
for exposing syscon, isn't it? The sc9863a looks like broken design, so
please do not duplicate it here.

So here is the answer why you added MFD, but I still don't get why do
you need it for one child? It is quite a dance here and in your drivers,
instead of adding "syscon" to your clock controller.
This also pollutes the actual bindings because you did not add
properties required for clock controllers, because of describing here
the syscon part.
