Filename should match compatibles, at least in the "vendor,device"
style, so for example: nuvoton,lpc.yaml

LPC is a generic bus, so this should not be in "soc" directory. Where?
Depends what is this... Generic bus bindings could be in "bus" directory
or dedicated "lpc", if we have more of these.

You need to decide whether you describe here bus, bus controller or
device on the bus.

LPC bus is a bridge? It's either incorrect or so generic that every bus
is a "bridge"?

No underscores in node names. Generic node names, so maybe "bpc"

This also does not match your example at all.

This sentence is not grammatically correct. BPC supports capturing
double words when using double word capturing? Aren't these two sentences?

No items here.

Contains

But you need to explain what are these... I/O addresses on the bus?

Is it the same as reg-io-width?

No, only bus schemas could have it. Here additionalProperties: false.

It seems there are already few LPC controllers and all are put in
different places:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/aspeed-lpc.yaml
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/hisilicon/low-pin-count.yaml

Maybe Rob why this was made not really as two bindings - for bus
controller and devices?

Best regards,
