I think on v3 you were asked to use a filename that matches the
compatibles?

This looks like a generic compatible, not a specific one, but you use it
on the imx8ulp. I would have expected that you would have something like
"fsl,imx8ulp-ele" for that.

On v3 you had constraints:
	enum: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7]
Do constraints no longer apply? If they do, you can use minimum &
maximum to specify them.

Are there constraints here? If so, same applies.
You should use "default:" for defaults, rather than describing them in
freeform text.

Thanks,
Conor.
