Yes, and we already support all those platforms just fine without this 
child node. Adding it means we have to then support *both* ways in the 
driver.

Why doesn't it work with the schema?

It's convenient when DT nodes == device drivers, but hardware is messy 
sometimes. Linux (and other OSs) have to deal with that. We can't write 
the DT to reflect the current (and evolving) needs of a particular OS.
