The check is certainly useful. If it's not feasible to fix the checker (e.g.
because it analyzes standalone DTSIs), I am fine with reverting my commit
with an indication that this is to avoid triggering a dt-validate false
positive.

I am not familiar with dt-validate's inner workings to offer a patch.

Cheers,
Ahmad
