Should this enumerate what legal values are for flags, or point at a
standard document that does?

How does the UART know what frequency its clock input is, in order to
calculate dividers? Should there be a clocks property to link to the
input clock, so the rate can be queried? If so, a reference to the
common clock binding, plus a specification of which clocks must be
listed in the clock property should be included here.

Shouldn't this reference Sascha Hauer's binding document (although I
suppose it isn't checked in yet), and just document the additions? I
wonder if this binding should be written assuming Sascha's binding doc
will be checked in?
