typo here

Does not look like you tested the bindings. Please run `make
dt_binding_check` (see
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.rst for instructions).

s/This binding describes a//
But instead describe the hardware. What is the OCC?

I find the combination property name with this description confusing. It
sounds like init of OCC and somehow it should be inactive? I assume if
you initialize device, it is active. Or maybe the "init" is of something
else? What is more, non-negation is easier to understand, so rather
"ibm,active-on-boot" (or something like that).

just "hwmon"
