For the Cadence controller at least, these should be controller specific.

Many SPI controllers need to add properties to slave devices. This could be the delay in clock or data lines, etc. These properties are controller specific but need to be defined in the slave node because they are per-slave and there can be multiple slaves attached to a controller. If these properties are not added to the slave binding, then the dtbs check emits a warning. But these properties do not make much sense in the slave binding because they are controller-specific and they will just pollute every slave binding. So this binding is added to collect all such properties from all such controllers. Slave bindings should simply refer to this binding and they should be rid of the warnings. There are some limitations with this approach. Firstly, there is no way to specify required properties. The schema contains properties for all controllers and there is no way to know which controller is being used. Secondly, there is no way to restrict additional properties. Since this schema will be used with an allOf operator, additionalProperties needs to be true. In addition, the slave schema will have to set unevaluatedProperties: false. Despite these limitations, this appears to be the best solution to this problem that doesn't involve modifying existing tools or schema specs.
