Please consider using the new DT schema format.

No need to define these standard flags again here.

Don't need this. It's the parent.

This device needs a device specific compatible. These 2 alone are not 
desired.

Please define everything that's in the chip as much as you can.

Use standard node names: gpio@40

You may not even need a child node here. It depends on what other child 
nodes you have and whether they have their own DT resources.

Why? Just pick one and a child node is the preference.
