I just made a copy/past of the "st,syscfg-pdds" syscon description available in the same file [1]

I can provide a shorter descriptions, something like this:

description: |
Reference to the tamp syscon register and bitmask which contains the Cortex-M4
resource table address.
maxItems: 1

Would this meet your expectations? If yes, I will also add in next version an extra patch to fix [1]

I will extend the example with these properties
