This was the missing piece - thanks.
And as Mark put it "why is this suddenly an issue"?
Turns out this is already properly handled and I made up an issue.
Maybe Mark tried to explian it to me already...

I had focus on validating the example in the binding
file and not the full picture.
One thing I do not see properly addressed, but maybe I just miss it.
What triggers that we catch properties that are not supposed to be
present?
If we see a unsupported property "foobar":
spi {
...
panel {
....
foobar = <1>;
};
};
somewhere in a SPI slave binding we should catch this.
If for no other reasons that it could be a simple spelling mistake
that otherwise could go undetected for a long time.
But maybe this is really not feasible to do?
