Yes, as mentioned there's patches doing this. But the above is fine. 
There's some value in defining here which properties are valid.

No SPI nand devices >4GB?

That should probably all be in mtd.yaml. The question here is whether 
partitions are always under a 'partitions' node. Maybe this is new 
enough that only the new way has to be supported. Though if mtd.yaml 
supported both forms, allowing both all the time is okay IMO.
