Judging by what the driver actually implements, this should probably be:

  compatible:
    items:
      - enum:
        - amlogic,g12a-ddr-pmu
        - amlogic,g12b-ddr-pmu
        - amlogic,sm1-ddr-pmu
      - const: amlogic,g12-ddr-pmu

There doesn't seem much point in allowing only the common compatible 
without a SoC-specific identifier. Note also that "aml," is not the 
documented vendor prefix.

Remove this, and use the compatible strings properly as above.

I suspect those could probably be inferred from the correct compatible 
string, but if not (i.e. within one SoC you have multiple PMUs 
supporting the same events but with different numbers of usable 
channels), then document what exactly they mean.

As mentioned in the driver review, if you really want to use a named 
interrupt (which should usually be unnecessary when there's only one), 
it has to be a defined name. DT is not a mechanism for overriding what 
Linux shows in /proc/interrupts.

Thanks,
