This is because 'reg' is longer than the schema was told it would be.
net/dsa/mscc,ocelot.yaml defines 'reg' with maxItems: 1, whereas
net/mscc,vsc7514-switch.yaml lists out all targets.

At this stage I wonder whether it wouldn't be better for you to patch up
net/mscc,vsc7514-switch.yaml with support for your compatible string and
reference dsa.yaml, rather than net/dsa/mscc,ocelot.yaml which should
perhaps be rebranded to make it clear it only applies to NXP
integrations of Microchip switches.

I also expressed something along these lines yesterday
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20221007231009.qgcirfezgib5vu6y@skbuf/
and I'd wait for a little bit more, to give Krzysztof a chance to
respond and share his thoughts.
