The fact this belongs below the --- has already been mentioned.

These first two things are different types of change.
Patch 1: Combine bindings.
Patch 2: Add new device entry to combined binding
Patch 3: Add driver support.

Don't need the oneOf. Lots of examples of this in tree!

It is very rare that a binding for a sensor 'requires' interrupts.
They are more commonly a nice to have.

Note that the driver failing doesn't mean the binding should change.
Unless there is a very strong requirement (polling can't be done for
some reason - or device is largely pointless with out the interrupt)
then we normally keep it optional in the binding.

Someone can fix the driver later if they care about it!

Also, if this fix is correct, it needs to be a precursor patch handing
just this tightening of the binding. The rest of the series then goes
on top of that.
