What is Domain ID?

Do you expect then multiple ele nodes in the DTS? What are these two
properties and why they are fixed per SoC, but still embedded in DTS?

No underscores in node names, generic node names, e.g. firmware. Look at
existing code.

Two items, not one.

Plus you clearly did not test the binding and DTS. You said you did some
internal review, so I assume this also includes some testing. How did
you test your DTS?
