Please document the compatible string here as well.

I don't think "-no-tz" should be mentioned here in DT, since it's a
firmware/software detail.

No need to check this AFAICT.

Do we really need this firmware driver? As far as I can see, the
approach used here should work even without any driver bound to the
firmware device.
