A nit, subject: drop second/last, redundant "binding". The
"dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings.

I do not see how this should be a separate device. This should be rather part
of PSCRR, reboot handler or just the nvmem. Otherwise it is just device
node for instantiating driver.
