They grow now with SM8450 which requires changes there. Otherwise DTS
does not pass with current bindings. The bindings before my fixing in
2022 were really incomplete. Now they are complete, but:
1. Not for SM8450 - this will bring new things,
2. Very unspecific as they allow multiple invalid configurations.

APR/GPR bindings are for SoC audio, so while adding SoC audio the first
are affected. If you went through the commits here, you would notice the
changes.
