You cannot change the binding for the sake of driver. But you can make this
change in other way. See below...

"linux,pci-domain" is a generic property. So you cannot make it required only
for certain SoCs. But you can make it so for all SoCs. This way, the drivers
can also rely on it.

Now, you should get rid of the commit message about driver internals:
