Those two property come respectively from:
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/timer/brcm,bcm2835-system-timer.txt
- Documentation/devicetree/bindings/interrupt-controller/brcm,bcm2836-l1-intc.txt

that are old style txt bindings. So unfortunally they will output that
kind of warnings: converting txt to yaml schema wouldbe great, but I
think a little outside the scope of this patchset. I would say it is
a good cancidate for a separate patch.

Many thanks,
Andrea
