Define bindings for the DTS, not for the drivers.

Binding headers is not a place for register values. By definition -
these are bindings, not hardware description. Hardware description is
DTS. Feel free to store them in DTS headers, but anyway this does not
solve the issue here.

The issue is: you store register values in DTS, which is limited, not
extendable description. Each of your devices would need entirely
different binding for this because register values can change between
every SoC version. Several other pinctrl bindings use similar approach,
but they have not got a clear mapping to values (e.g. they have fast and
slow). For the case with real values, use the same solution as
drive-strength - real values.

NAK for bindings.
