Found it: make dtbs_check doesn't play well with my local change to
add symbols for DT overlays:

    --- a/scripts/Makefile.lib
    +++ b/scripts/Makefile.lib
    @@ -285,6 +285,10 @@ cmd_dt_S_dtb=
             \
     $(obj)/%.dtb.S: $(obj)/%.dtb FORCE
            $(call if_changed,dt_S_dtb)

    +ifeq ($(CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY),y)
    +DTC_FLAGS += -@
    +endif
    +
     quiet_cmd_dtc = DTC     $@
     cmd_dtc = mkdir -p $(dir ${dtc-tmp}) ; \
            $(HOSTCC) -E $(dtc_cpp_flags) -x assembler-with-cpp -o
$(dtc-tmp) $< ; \

Do you see a way to handle that better?

Apart from a few expected issues, I'm seeing one other strange message:

    arch/arm/boot/dts/sh73a0-kzm9g.dt.yaml: interrupts: [[2, 4], [3,
4]] is too long

This is the interrupts property in the adi,adxl345 node in
arch/arm/boot/dts/sh73a0-kzm9g.dts.
Apparently the check complains if more than one interrupt is listed here.
Is this a known issue?

Thanks!

Gr{oetje,eeting}s,
