I think FIMD should be capitalized.

Perhaps this would have been more clear:

- interrupt-parent : a phandle to the interrupt combiner node;

?

And could we just use a colon instead of ":=", to keep it more consistent
with other Samsung SoC DT bindings documentation ?

I have a suggestion here. What about using reg-names property to make this
more explicit, e.g.

- interrupts : should contain a list of all FIMD IP block interrupts:
   FIFO Level, VSYNC, LCD_SYSTEM. The interrupt specifier format depends
   on the interrupt controller used;

- interrupt-names : should contain the interrupt names: "fifo", "vsync",
   "lcd_sys", in the order in which they were listed in the interrupts
   property;

Or something similar to that. Then the drivers would need to be modified
to get interrupt resource by name, and not to rely on the VSYNC interrupt
be listed as the first one.

Might be sufficient to just mention that the "default" state needs to be
specified in the fimd node, with reference to the pinctrl bindings
documentation, e.g.

"The pinctrl bindings defined in ../../pinctrl/pinctrl-bindings.txt must be
used to define a pinctrl state named "default".

See https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/2082311.

"a phandle to FIMD power domain node" ?
