Drop references to Linux driver, unless important for the binding.

Drop "-spi". Compatibles are not supposed to include bus information.
The same for file name.

Drop description, it's obvious.

No need for ref and description. It comes from spi-peripheral-props.

Why unit address is optional?

Drop minItems.... but see comment below:

Why this is different than other multi-color LEDs? I would expect here
children with common.yaml.

Drop minItems.... but:

default: 255

What controls the intensity? Don't you have PWM there?

Node names should be generic.

compatible is first property, reg is second.
