Implementation of what? u-boot? BSD? robOS?

So just keep sending new versions instead?

syscon-reboot is not the only binding for a system reset device, right? 
So those others reset devices will need 'priority' too. For a given 
property, there should only be one schema definition defining the type 
for the property. Otherwise, there might be conflicts. So you need a 
common schema doing that. And here you would just have 'priority: true' 
or possibly some binding specific constraints.
