OK, so I need to add the vendor prefix such as "aspeed,pcc-ports". Right?
But I want to check the snoop-ports usage. In the HW controller, the usage should be the same.
Not only aspeed but nuvoton, there exist a HW module for the snoop-ports or pcc-ports usage.

For the port-mmaped I/O in x80 architecture, BMC need to handle specific port I/O in the relative HW module.
So, I need to add the pcc-ports property as the snoop-ports property in Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mfd/aspeed-lpc.yaml

The port-mmaped I/O is defined from host, BMC as the device would capture the port I/O from the pcc-ports property defined in dts.

Host as x86 architecture would access the 0x80 port, which is mapped to the BMC PCC HW module.
As a result, x86 can keep the port-mmaped I/O usage and access the BMC device, which is needed to know which port using in the PCC module in BMC.
