We could probably do without this if we didn't enforce additional or
unevaluated properties. Because if we don't match on a pattern here then
all of those GPIO hog nodes would show up as "extra" properties and they
are currently not allowed. If we do allow them, then we can drop this,
but we then have no way to fail validation for whatever else somebody
might want to put into these device tree nodes.

That said, I think additionalProperties can be a schema in itself, so
maybe there's a way to only allow additional properties if they are of
type object and have a gpio-hog property. I'll look into that.
