Could be something like this:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20220830065744.161163-2-krzysztof.kozlowski@xxxxxxxxxx/
which is a part of top-level schema or add a new one. The new one will
duplicate the compatibles and parts from that one there, so maybe better
to keep it in top-level?

I am not sure, any suggestions are welcome. Also platform/architecture
maintainers might have their preference to organize it.

Anyway, you did not Cc the actual platform maintainers (Rafał and Hauke).

Yes. If schema matches the top level compatible, then in allOf:if:then
you can add restriction to disallow it for other variants:

For example:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.19/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/example-schema.yaml#L212

https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v5.19/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/google,cros-ec.yaml#L152
