I don't think this is a good binding. This information already exists 
elsewhere in the DT, so your driver should just look in those nodes. 
For example the regulator can be in the cpu nodes or the OPP table 
itself.

Roger, if that helps, without changing any other binding, on 8183,
basically you could have:
 - svs-cpu-little: Add a handle to &cpu0 and get the regulator/opp
table from it.
 - svs-cpu-big: Handle to &cpu4
 - svs-cci: Handle to &cci
 - svs-gpu: Handle to &gpu (BTW, it is expected that SVS would only
apply to vgpu/mali regulator, and not vsram regulator?)

I'm not too sure how we'd fetch the right regulator name, however (for
the first 3 the name is "proc", for the last one it's "mali"), maybe
add a regulator-name list in the DT?

Why do you need those? Use the compatible of the cpus to determine big
and little cores. Or there's the cpu capacity property that could be
used instead.

Is there more than 1 CCI? Just retrieve the node by the compatible.
There's no need to have nodes that simply serve as a collection of
data for some driver.

To put this another way, write an SoC specific driver that understands
to some extent what exists in the SoC (and DT). I doubt something like
this is going to be generic across more than a few SoCs at most.

svs-gpu depends on vgpu power on for init (don't care vgpu_sram). After
svs-gpu init is done, it doesn't need vgpu power on anymore. (vgpu can
be turned off)

Please allows me to introduce more about what svs-gpu device needs.
1. It needs gpu opp table from "gpu node" and gpu_core2 power-domains
from "gpu_core2 node". When svs-gpu has those resources, it turns on
gpu_core2 power-domain for svs-gpu-hw to have power (for calculating)
and svs-gpu-sw will update gpu opp table voltages' part.
2. Therefore, if I retrieve gpu-related node from phandle or compatible,
it means svs-gpu device in driver needs to attach two different gpu
nodes for attaining gpu opp table and gpu_core2 power-domains. I think
this architecture of svs-gpu confuses maintainer why it attaches two
different nodes instead of having a device to describe what it needs.
3. Is it acceptable to have a Linux device attaching two different
nodes? If yes, could you guide us some APIs for one device to attach two
nodes? I don't know how to implement it. Thanks.

I'm also trying to understand how that would work. The way the code
works now (https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/refs/heads/chromeos-4.19/drivers/power/avs/mtk_svs.c#1388):

The SVS driver creates a platform device for each sub-node, find the
sub-node that matches the compatible (pdev->dev.of_node):
for_each_child_of_node(svs->dev->of_node, np) {
  if (of_device_is_compatible(np, svsb->of_compatible)) {
    pdev->dev.of_node = np;
    break;
  }
}

Then, thanks to that, the 2 functions dev_pm_opp_of_add_table and
devm_regulator_get_optional "just work", as the get the opp table and
regulator from the device tree node.

So what you suggest is basically something like this:
pdev->dev.of_node = of_find_compatible_node(NULL, NULL, "mediatek,mt8183-cci");

I came up with a (very dirty) prototype here:
https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromiumos/third_party/kernel/+/2076718
... and it doesn't really work
(https://gist.github.com/drinkcat/61e50eedbdc301d418c9cee3ee5b6b06, I
think the kernel is probing more than it should, like the DMA mask
errors should not happen...)

Before I dig further... I have the same concern as Roger, is it ok to
have 2 devices bound to the same device tree node/compatible? My
understanding was also that it's not.

Rob: It seems like this conversation died here. Do you have any

+* Mediatek Smart Voltage Scaling (MTK SVS)
+
+This describes the device tree binding for the MTK SVS controller (bank)
+which helps provide the optimized CPU/GPU/CCI voltages. This device also
+needs thermal data to calculate thermal slope for accurately compensate
+the voltages when temperature change.
+
+Required properties:
+- compatible:
+  - "mediatek,mt8183-svs" : For MT8183 family of SoCs
+- reg: Address range of the MTK SVS controller.
+- interrupts: IRQ for the MTK SVS controller.
+- clocks, clock-names: Clocks needed for the svs hardware. required
+                       clocks are:
+		       "main": Main clock for svs controller to work.
+- nvmem-cells: Phandle to the calibration data provided by a nvmem device.
+- nvmem-cell-names: Should be "svs-calibration-data" and "calibration-data"
+
+Subnodes:
+- svs-cpu-little: SVS bank device node of little CPU
+  compatible: "mediatek,mt8183-svs-cpu-little"
+  operating-points-v2: OPP table hooked by SVS little CPU bank.
+		       SVS will optimze this OPP table voltage part.
+  vcpu-little-supply: PMIC buck of little CPU
+- svs-cpu-big: SVS bank device node of big CPU
+  compatible: "mediatek,mt8183-svs-cpu-big"
+  operating-points-v2: OPP table hooked by SVS big CPU bank.
+		       SVS will optimze this OPP table voltage part.
+  vcpu-big-supply: PMIC buck of big CPU
+- svs-cci: SVS bank device node of CCI
+  compatible: "mediatek,mt8183-svs-cci"
+  operating-points-v2: OPP table hooked by SVS CCI bank.
+		       SVS will optimze this OPP table voltage part.
+  vcci-supply: PMIC buck of CCI
+- svs-gpu: SVS bank device node of GPU
+  compatible: "mediatek,mt8183-svs-gpu"
