Bindings are in DT schema format now.

What's a kernel module? ;) Bindings are OS independent (or supposed to 
be), so kernel details do not belong here.

Bindings describe devices, not protocols. There is no such 
'hid-over-spi' device. Please see the existing hid-over-i2c binding. 
It's fine to have this compatible, but only as a fallback compatible.

What happens when the device has 2 supplies? And there's some timing 
requirement between them?

'reset-gpios' is the standard name.

These properties are what happens when we try to do generic bindings. 
It's a never-ending addition of more properties to try to describe 
(poorly) the power sequencing requirements.

A bit too generic. We generally want to avoid having a property name 
with 2 different types/meaning. It's not something we check for yet, but 
I plan to at some point.
