Is that because past SoCs used the same registers? I don't see how
else you have any insight to what future SoCs will do.

Normally we don't do 1 node per register type bindings, so I'm a bit
leery about doing 1 node per domain.

Drop this and define this node in the syscon schema with a $ref to this schema.

No other power domain binding needs this, why do you?

I prefer 1 complete example in the MFD schema rather than piecemeal examples.

As the child nodes are memory mapped devices, size should be 1. Then
address translation works (though Linux doesn't care (currently)).
