So how about the following ?

properties:
compatible:
enum:
- xlnx,v-smpte-uhdsdi-rx-ss-1.0
- xlnx,v-smpte-uhdsdi-rx-ss-2.0

...

xlnx,bpc:
description: ...
$ref: "/schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/uint32"
enum: [10, 12]
default: 10

...

allOf:
- if:
not:
properties:
compatible:
contains:
xlnx,v-smpte-uhdsdi-rx-ss-2.0
then:
properties:
xlnx,bpc: false

This indicates that the xlnx,bpc property isn't allowed for v1.0.
Another option would be

then:
properties:
xlnx,bpc:
const: 10

to indicate it must be equal to 10 on v1.0.

I'm not sure it's Xilinx-specific, but I think we don't have enough
examples of other SDI receivers to know if the propery could be made
generic or not.
