Looks like wrong location, although difficult to judge because you did
not describe the hardware at all. If this is chipinfo-like device, then
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/hwinfo/.
My guts driver is refer fsl platform. It was was to manage and access
global utilities register block for SoC and it was only used in SoC
platform. when driver need use Soc ops to do some function the this
driver was needed. the dcfg (device config) was a function in guts
(global utilities) block.
For these type of driver, other platforms were initially placed on
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/ if it is arm/arm64
architecture. Later, move it to the soc directory.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/fsl/fsl,layerscape-dcfg.yaml
So, do you still think it is inappropriate to place it in the soc dir?

Drop "driver." unless you refer to some hardware (like motor driver?).
this need refer hardware soc datasheet to gain soc register (global
utilities register block ).
so keep "driver" string that whether was more appropriate?

Drop "driver" and describe instead what is GUTS, including its acronym,

Entire sentence describe Linux driver - drop it. Instead describe the
device, the hardware.

Node names should be generic.
dcfg/scfg (device cfg/ soc cfg)was the key function of guts (global
utilities) block. and guts name I was refer fsl soc driver.
"drivers/soc/fsl/guts.c"
this binding file was follows of fsl guts.
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/fsl/fsl,layerscape-dcfg.yaml
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/soc/fsl/fsl,layerscape-scfg.yaml
or, I was use scfg as node name, Do you think it's appropriate?
