Several issues here.
1. A nit, subject: drop second/last, redundant "bindings". The
"dt-bindings" prefix is already stating that these are bindings.
See also:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.7-rc8/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.rst#L18

2. Commit msg: Bindings are about hardware, not driver.

This just does not work and was not tested... Limited review follows:

Drop spi and explain why this cannot be part of existing nt36672a.

I finished review here.
