Yeah, that seems fairly useless to me.

Perhaps: "8250 series UART..."

anyOf:
- required: [ clock-frequency ]
- required: [ clocks ]

Seems to me these are just as likely to be wrong as the fsl,ns16550 as
it's unlikely the FIFO is broken. Perhaps a note here to use
'ns16550a' instead unless you have a broken FIFO.

Needs a type reference.

We'll assume these have a type definition elsewhere.

Needs a type reference.

s/implements/implement/

Needs a type reference (or 'type: boolean').

Need a type reference for all these.

Is there a range of number of resets? Use minItems/maxItems.

No need to define properties from serial.yaml again. Just 'rts-gpios: true'.
