I still don't understand what this is needed for. What is the difference
between the instances? There must be some reason you care. We should
describe that difference, not some made up index.
I'm not suggesting using the base address either. That's fragile too.
This device is on the Host1x bus. On that bus, each device has an
identifier baked into hardware called 'class' that is used when
accessing devices through some mechanisms (host1x channels). As such,
when probing the device we need to specify the class of the device to
the host1x driver so it knows how to talk to it. Those class numbers are
fixed so we have hardcoded them in the driver, but now that we have two
NVDECs, we need to distinguish between them so that we can specify the
correct class for each instance to the host1x driver.

+additionalProperties: true
'true' here is not allowed unless the schema is not complete and
intended to be included in a complete schema or unconditionally applied
(i.e. 'select: true'). This case is neither. As pointed out previously,
'unevaluatedProperties' is what you'd want here.
However, I looked into supporting defining properties in if/then/else
schemas as you have done and I don't think we will support that soon.
It's problematic because we can't validate the schema under the if/then
completely. The reason is properties under if/then schemas don't have to
be complete as we expect a top level definition that is complete (e.g.
vendor properties must have 'description'). To solve this, we'd have to
only apply meta-schema checks if the property doesn't appear at the top
level. That's more complicated than I care to implement ATM.
I see two paths here: either keep 'additionalProperties: true' or remove
it and have this binding trigger validation failures. Which one do you
suggest or is there some third option?
Thanks,
Mikko
