Missing full stop.

Subject: drop second/last, redundant "dt-bindings for". The
"dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings.

Why this cannot be auto-discoverable? Why do you need OF for this?

Did you test the bindings?

This property does not look correct. If you have static addresses, you
do not need OF. What do you want to discover here?

Use 4 spaces for example indentation.

That's not correct style. Drop hex notation. Drop leading zeros.

But anyway you did not test the bindings. This cannot work. Try.

> + compatible = "msft,vmbus";

compatible is a first property.

What do you translate? There is no reg, no unit address.
