No wildcards in compatible strings or model names please. List the
exact chip that you are using.

I don't know how much history is behind this binding. Have you looked
at the sPAPR way of doing this? I don't remember exactly how that is
done, but we'd need a good reason to discard that and implement
something else for arm64.

If we create a new binding, I don't think the 'numa-map' node you
have here is the best solution. We already have device nodes for each
memory segment and each CPU in the system. Why not work with those
nodes directly?

Why is the timer outside of the soc and the refclk is inside?
I would have expected the opposite.
