A nit, subject: drop second/last, redundant "device tree binding for"
The "dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings.

Filename based on compatible, e.g. idt,rc38xxx.yaml

What are the "xxx"? Wild-cards? Are these compatible? Please read
writing-bindings.

Drop description, it is redundant.

This looks quite incomplete. Why it cannot be part of existing idt binding?

You have totally messed indentation. What's more, this was not tested.

What is "FemtoClock3" doing here? What is it exactly?

What's more, where is any user of it? What's the point of adding binding
without any users? Please read submitting patches in DT bindings directory.
