This needs to move back into cpus.yaml, this file documents root node
compatibles (boards and socs etc) and is not for CPUs. If you want to
restrict this to T-Head CPUs only, it must be done in cpus.yaml with
a conditional `if: not: ... then: properties: thead,vlenb: false`.

Please test your bindings.

Thanks,
Conor.
