You pointed driver, so how is it related to bindings? Do not mix Linux
implementation with the bindings.

No underscores in node names. sr_regs is not generic name.

Again, not a generic name. If it is i2c controller, should be i2c. If it
is i2c device/client, should be something generic matching class of the
device.

This looks ok, depending on compatible.
