If there's additional functions, they should be part of the binding
now, not later. bindings should not unnecessarily evolve.

Drivers and DT nodes don't have to be 1-1. A parent driver can create
additional child devices.

Also, looking at your existing bindings for RCC IP, it is done as I suggested.

Sounds like a Linux problem, not a DT issue.
