Hi Sibi,
this series got a bit neglected...my bad...a few comments down below.

...so there has been a lot of work around Vendor protos recently (as you
have seen) and especially around the way we define the DT bindings to have
multiple vendor protocols coexist with the same overlapping numbers.
(the code-level coexistence is already in place as you've seen...)
I think some sort of agreement on HOW to render this in the bindings
side was reached around a series from NXP...not sure if I am missing something
here but this commit from Peng/NXP (if you have not seen it already):
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20240621-imx95-bbm-misc-v2-v5-2-b85a6bf778cb@xxxxxxx/
...it is a good example of how you can define your vendor specific part in
a vendor specific binding files and then just add a single $ref line in
the core binding Documentation/devicetree/bindings/firmware/arm,scmi.yaml
(and that has been successfully reviewd...)
Moreover, in that same series from Peng/NXP you could have a look at
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/20240621-imx95-bbm-misc-v2-v5-1-b85a6bf778cb@xxxxxxx/
that adds the Documentation for their Vendor protocols.
Beside the final location in the tree for such docs, which is a detail
we can settle later on our side too, I think that patch is a good example
of the kind of vendor-protos Documentation Sudeep is expecting.

..here you should be able to just plant your $ref without redefining the

...and instead here you will define your protocols, compliant with the
main protocol-node def and any specific vendor sub-properties that you
should need....
...the above example from NXP is probably more clear than any attempt of mine
to explain this :P
Thanks,
