See comment below.
This is not about code, but about reusing the (generic) binding for more
SoCs then just rk3288 that happened to have Linux support.
See spi-rockchip.yaml rockchip-dw-mshc.yaml etc.

Success! Send us lots of patches...
Is it possible to keep portability (to U-boot) in mind for multiple
Rockchip SoC types.

Although DT and bindings are hosted in the Linux tree they are separate
things. DT files and bindings can be used elsewhere. There's no need for
(full) Linux driver support. For Rockchip crypto nodes this is mostly
done in the Manufacturer U-boot tree.

https://github.com/rockchip-linux/u-boot/blob/next-dev/drivers/crypto/rockchip/crypto_v1.c

https://github.com/rockchip-linux/u-boot/blame/next-dev/drivers/crypto/rockchip/crypto_v2.c

Given Krzysztof's comment:

For U-boot the Rockchip dtsi files are synced from the Linux tree,
so it may well be possible that someone add them here and use them
elsewhere if needed.

>From the links to the files above we can expect:
crypto v1:
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk312x-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk322x-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk3288-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk3328-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk3368-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk3399-crypto" },

crypto v2:
{ .compatible = "rockchip,px30-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk1808-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk3308-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rv1126-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk3568-crypto" },
{ .compatible = "rockchip,rk3588-crypto" },

With only small nodes differences for clocks we reuse the "generic"
binding and NOT a (rk3288) SoC orientated one.
