Yes, it is. Here:

Well hidden, isn't it. :)

It is valid to have a "blank" phandle when you have optional entries,
but need to preserve the indexes of the entries. Say an array of gpio
lines and some may not be hooked up. Not widely used, but it does
exist in kernel dts files.

At least for your example, we'd exit the loop (cell < 3/4). But I need
to a check for that because it would be silent currently. I'll add a
check that the size is a multiple of 4 and greater than 0.

However, the check here is not perfect because we could have
"<&phandle1 1 2>" when really it should be "<&phandle1 &phandle2
&phandle3>". We don't fail until we're checking the 2nd phandle.
That's why I added the "or bad phandle" and the cell # in the message
above. In the opposite case, we'd be silent. One thing that could be
done is double check things against the markers if they are present.
