To be honest I don't think that skeleton.dtsi is all that helpful.

Almost all dts files define the root #address-cells and #size-cells for
clarity anyway (which means the memory node isn't necessarily adequately
sized), and the memory node(s) should have unit-addresses (so they won't
match the memory node it provides).

Where a dts is written with the assumption that the bootloader will fill
things there should be a comment in the dts to that effect, with
adequately sized memory nodes.

The only potentially useful items are the empty /chosen and /aliases
nodes. Both of which don't seem to be strictly required.

If anything, I'd be tempted to get rid of skeleton.dtsi entirely.

Thanks,
Mark.
