IMO preserving the device-specific constraints even if they match the
generic ones has some maintainability benefits. What if you get to
discover a new HW which supports Hexal mode? Then you would have
needed to update the common schema constraints. But that would have
caused permitting the unsupported bus-mode for all the schemas, which
isn't correct. So as I see it the explicit bus-width enumeration would
be ok to have here. But I'll leave it for Rob to make a final
decision.
