It's triggered from WARNING(unique_unit_address, ...), because it
calls static void check_unique_unit_address_common() function with
disable_check=false. I guess we should interpret that this way: the
warning makes sense in regular case, when having the same unit address
for two nodes is wrong. So the warning is reasonable, it's just not
relevant in this particular case. What can be done:

  1. We can introduce some specific property to mark nodes with
duplicated address as intentional. check_unique_unit_address_common()
can be extended then to omit checking the nodes if that property is
present.
  2. We can just ignore that warning in this particular case (and
similar cases).
  3. We can add some disambiguation note to that warning message, like
"if it's intentional -- please ignore this message"

I'm all for option (3), as it's the easiest one, and still reasonable.
Rob, what do you think? Can we just ignore that warning in further
versions of this patch series?
