What limitation? It already supports multiple PCS phandles. It doesn't 
support arg cells. If you want that, either you have to fix the number 
of cells or define a #pcs-handle-cells property. You've done neither 
here.

Adding #pcs-handle-cells will also require some updates to the dtschema 
tools.
