I appreciate the conversion, but please focus on bindings which are
actually used. We have no in tree users of this property.
There's daily builds which list undocumented (by schemas) compatibles:
https://gitlab.com/robherring/linux-dt/-/jobs?kind=BUILD
This repo has scripts to fetch and parse the logs from the above builds:

This would not work unless this is the only property in a node. But this
schema is never applied to anything without a compatible or node name to
match on. This property needs to be added to nand-chip.yaml instead.
