Normal order is <vendor>,<soc>-<ipblock>.

Don't use '_'.

What's the difference between these 2? It can't be detected somehow?
This might be better expressed as a property. Then if Trustzone
initializes things, it can just add a property.

Use 'interrupts' here and describe what they are and the order. What
they are connected to (and the need for interrupts-extended) is
outside the scope of this binding.

Format as one per line.

Only a compatible string is a sure sign this is not a h/w device and
you are just abusing DT to instantiate drivers. Make the IPA driver
instantiate any sub drivers it needs.
