The short answer is we don't have a defined way beyond deprecating
properties within a given binding with 'deprecated: true'. The only
versioning we have ATM is the kernel requires a minimum version of
dtschema (which we'll have to bump for all this).
We could have something like:
old-pci-bridge.yaml:
allOf:
- $ref: pci-host-bridge.yaml#
- $ref: pcie-port.yaml#
new-pci-bridge.yaml:
allOf:
- $ref: pci-host-bridge.yaml#
properties:
pci@0:
$ref: pcie-port.yaml#
And then both of the above schemas will have $ref to a pci-bridge.yaml
schema which should be most of pci-bus.yaml. linux,pci-domain and
dma-ranges? go to pci-host-bridge.yaml. max-link-speed, num-lanes,
reset-gpios, slot-power-limit-milliwatt, and the pending supply
additions (Broadcom) go to pcie-port.yaml.

I think we're pretty much in alignment. Look at the Broadcom portdrv
changes proposed if you haven't already. It's all interrelated.
