Messed SoB chain... plus corrupted tag. Please look at submitting
patches what should be written here.

Bindings describe real hardware, not virtual arrangements. At least
usually. You need to make a case in the commit msg why we want exception
from standard rule.

For sure we do not describe drivers here. Describe hardware or
system/board-level concept.

You allow only one phandle, not list, so this is confusing.

Time in ms is expressed with proper unit suffix.

Isn't there standard property for this?

Use color and function instead.

You have patch warnings.
