Keep compatible as first property.

I think you got comment that these comments are making things
unreadable. I don't see here improvement.
For example first comment is useless - you say the same as compatible.
Same with last one. So only remaining WD comment should be made in new
line so everything is nicely readable.
BTW, order the enum by name.

I am sure I saw comments here...

I don't understand this comment. Aren't you describing now what 'reg' is
in DT spec? If so, drop. If not, please share more.

Why this is in any order? Other bindings were here specific, your 'reg'
is also specific/fixed.

No need to duplicate examples. Keep only one. Everything is the same.
