Oh, I see that you document each of the PMIC's sub-nodes separately.
That's something you should explicitly mention in the top-level PMIC
binding document. You should probably also mention the filenames of the
binding documents for the child nodes.

This isn't the number of addresses in the child node, but rather the
number of cells in an (a single) address.

Similarly, this is the number of cells in a size specifier, nothing to
do with address, and not the size of a cell.

You should put the GPIO properties (gpio-controller, perhaps
interrupt-controller?) here instead of at the top level, since this HW
block is what implements the GPIO controller, and perhaps a
GPIO-interrupt controller.

You need a blank line there.

intrrupt? undeb?

stby might be better written out in full as standby.

deb?

This looks very much like pinctrl. If there's a real need to be as
verbose as pinctrl, perhaps this binding should actually be a full
pinctrl binding? If not, perhaps you can just use the raw HW register
values (with appropriate #defines to simplify setting up the
properties). Something like:

pin-configuration = <0xf7348 0x5783 0x92348 ...>;

or:

pin-configruation = <
    AMS3722_PULL_UP | AMS_GPIO_INVERT ...,
    ...
