Maybe not now, but both will always have the same errata and features?
2 is not a large number, so just do 2.

Of course, errata can vary by revision. Most Arm IP has version
registers, so I assume that's true here. If not, we'd need per SoC
implementation compatible strings here.

Well, there's lots of bad examples, and also, some Samsung bindings
are declared to not be stable.

Don't need a description as that's constraints the schema should express.

arm,rosc-ratio:
  allOf:
    - $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32-array
  maxItems: 4

No, the property name is always 'clocks'. You need just 'maxItems: 1'
if there's a single clock.
