Subject: drop "driver", bindings are about hardware.

It does not look like you tested the bindings, at least after quick
look. Please run `make dt_binding_check` (see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.rst for instructions).
Maybe you need to update your dtschema and yamllint.

You should have here someone responsible for hardware, not subsystem
maintainers.

That's weirdly empty.

You miss allOf: with $ref to fan controller schema.

Node names should be generic. See also an explanation and list of
examples (not exhaustive) in DT specification:
