That's going to avoid a warning in the examples, but it's going to
fail any actual google,c50 SPI user. What's going to happen is both
the SPI and I2C TPM schemas will be applied. Any SPI based cases will
fail if they have SPI properties because the I2C schema won't allow
them. If there is no fallback for google,cr50, then you must do a
separate schema doc (well, you could do an if/then schema in
tcg,tpm-tis-i2c.yaml to reference spi-peripheral-props.yaml, but that
would look kind of odd).
