Thanks for this information. So if I'm understanding correctly:

 - All DSA chips I'm modifying should reference dsa.yaml, as they
   currently are.
 - As such, these all should have unevaluatedProperties: true, so they
   can see into dsa.yaml.
 - dsa.yaml, and any schema that gets $ref:'d, can not have
   unevaluatedProperties: false, unless the desire is to forbid any
   other properties to be added.

I'll get another patch set out this week with all these changes, and
tested against the latest dt_bindings_check.
