Heh :) Currently with "unevaluatedProperties: false" restrictions do not
work at all. At least for me. For example with this change I have no
warnings:
diff --git a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/dsa/nxp,sja1105.yaml b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/dsa/nxp,sja1105.yaml
index 1e26d876d1463..da38ad98a152f 100644
--- a/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/dsa/nxp,sja1105.yaml
+++ b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/dsa/nxp,sja1105.yaml
@@ -120,6 +120,7 @@ examples:
ethernet-switch@1 {
reg = <0x1>;
compatible = "nxp,sja1105t";
+ something-random-here;

ethernet-ports {
#address-cells = <1>;

make dt_binding_check DT_SCHEMA_FILES=Documentation/devicetree/bindings/net/dsa/nxp,sja1105.yaml

So the main question is, is it broken for all or just for me? If it is
just me, what i'm doing wrong?
