I think this form is preferred:

"
- compatible: Should be one of:
              * st,stm32mp15-fmc2
"

the register location and length of...?

Maybe you could simplify a bit with something like:

-reg: NAND flash controller memory areas.
      First region ...
      Regions 2 to 4 respectively contain the data, command, and
      address space for CS0.
      Regions 5 to 7 contain the same areas for CS1.

Please s/nand/NAND/ in plain English.

Let me review the driver but this array of timings is really
suspicious. I am pretty sure you don't need it in the DT.
