A nit, subject: drop second/last, redundant "yamls for". The
"dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings, so
format is fixed.

Please make it a proper sentences, with proper wrapping.

Not a sentence, but also not really needed.

Not relevant, so not really suitable for commit msg.

What is DRM in hardware? I know Digital Rights Management, but then
subsystem seems wrong. If you mean Linux DRM, then Linux is not a
hardware, so drop all Linuxisms and describe hardware.

Virtual device? Then not suitable for bindings, sorry.

No, ports is not phandle-array. ports is object, always.

Use standard graph ports, not some own, custom property.

Anyway, entire binding should be dropped. You do not need it even.

In one line.
- description: host interface

Drop redundant parts: base address and length. Everything in reg for
MMIO would have it...

It does not look like you tested the bindings, at least after quick
look. Please run `make dt_binding_check` (see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.rst for instructions).
Maybe you need to update your dtschema and yamllint.
