I will add following description in next version of the patch:

"The ASPEED AST2700 SoC contains two separate pin controllers, each
managed by a distinct System Control Unit (SCU).
Because these two controllers have different register maps, control
different sets of pins, support different pin configuration options, and
implement different multi-function switch logic, they are not compatible.
Therefore, two separate device tree bindings,'aspeed,ast2700-soc0-pinctrl'
and 'aspeed,ast2700-soc1-pinctrl', are introduced."

I will remove it.

I will remove the description about the parent node and simplify the description
as following:

"Bindings for the ASPEED AST2700 SoC0 Pin Controller."

Ok, I will use the following to replace:
pins:
      $ref: /schemas/types.yaml#/definitions/string-array

Ok, I will use the following example to replace:

pinctrl0: pinctrl{
        compatible = "aspeed,ast2700-soc0-pinctrl";

        pinctrl_emmc_default: emmc-default {
                function = "EMMC";
                groups = "EMMCG1";
        };

        pinctrl_emmcclk_driving: emmcclk-driving {
                pins = "AC14";
                drive-strength = <2>;
        };
};

Thanks
