TPS6594 is a Power Management IC which provides regulators and others

TPS6594 is the super-set device while TPS6593 and LP8764X are derivatives.
As mentioned, the binding needs to be complete. It's missing GPIO at
least. RTC and watchdog may or may not need binding changes.
Thank you for your feedback.
About GPIO, do you speak about 'gpio-controller'
and/or '#gpio-cells' properties ?
Yes.
For RTC (and for watchdog, once the driver will be
implemented), our driver do not require any node
to work. What could make an explicit instantiation
necessary in DT ?
Properties from RTC schema, e.g. start-year, wakeup etc.
TPS6594 RTC driver is being reviewed (this is another patch
series, not merged yet). These properties are not used by our
driver, that's why we did not have to add some RTC node in
the DT (until now, using such properties in our driver was not
requested by RTC sub-system maintainers).

Perhaps the property name should include 'primary' and 'pmic'.
Otherwise, it looks like it is just marked as 'a SPMI controller'.
Including 'primary' and 'pmic' will be more understandable indeed.
I will change that in v3.

Is this a TI specific feature?
I don't think so. I will double-check that.
If not, shall I remove the 'ti,' prefix ?
Somehow reminds me qcom,bus-id, but the wording and code are not exactly
the same. The question here is whether this is generic feature of all
SPMI devices or PMICs, or device specific. If it is generic, then naming
and type should be chosen a bit more carefully and then indeed skip
"ti," prefix.
Apparently, it's not TI specific. Besides, all the information
I found about SPMI were related to PMIC devices. I have to
double-check with TI, though.
I will either rename it to 'ti,primary-pmic' if TI specific or
'primary-pmic' if not TI specific.

coupled regulator stuff doesn't work here?
Coupled regulator stuff works here.
Is it also necessary to specify some 'allOf' logic here to ensure
that mutual exclusions described below (for regulators) will be
applied ?
None of other regulators do it but you could add something.
Best regards,
