The first example has #phy-cells = <1>.
What do the cells mean? What are the expected values?

Whenever there is a ${PROP}-names property, there should be a list of
explicit values, and a description of how it relates to ${PROP}. Without
that it's a bit useless.
Please provide an explicit list of expected names here.
I assume here what you want is something like:
- reg: a list of address + length pairs, one for each entry in reg-names
- reg-names: should contain:
* "sata0" for the sata0 control registers...
* "sata1" ...
* "pcie0" ...
* "pcie1" ...

What's this used for?
Cheers,
Mark.
