The only contraints is that values come in pair and there is no upper
limit to the number of routes a device (using this driver) may have.

The upper limit of 8 might work now but is very likely to be wrong for
the next device to come.

Is there way to correctly describe this "pair" contraint with DT schema ?

If not, then I guess the most adequate solution is to drop minItems and
give no bound, like simple-card is doing for the same type of properties.

Same goes for the audio-widgets property
