Please answer: why?
Apologies for not providing detailed explanation.

As per your comments on the patch series in the above link and as per my understanding,
I have to do two operations:
1. Squash existing apds9300 schema and apds9960 schema as they look similar.
2. Add apds9306 (work in progress) support after that (which belongs to my original patch series).
This patch is the first operation.
+allOf:

+ - if:
+ properties:
+ compatible:

+ enum:

+ then:
+ required:
+ - interrupts

Why? This wasn't in original binding.
I am not sure about this. I went through the driver code and found out that probe()
of apds9300 handles both situations whether interrupt bindings are provided or not, whereas,
apds9960 requires an interrupt binding for probe() to be successful. I thought it would
be appropriate to add that in the schema.

Separate patch please.

You are doing way too many unexpected and not explained changes.
Sure. Thank you for reviewing.
