What about i2c and rpmsg variants?

That is what is needed assuming the binding stands as-is. Otherwise, 
boot0-gpios erroneously present or missing will give unexpected results.

If we were starting from scratch, I would say you should just drop 
'google,cros-ec-spi' from this binding. But I guess you want to preserve 
compatibility here. In that case, I think all this should be added to 
the existing doc with an if/then schema for conditional parts. That also 
avoids defining the common properties twice or moving them to a common, 
shared schema.
