as I also said in the comments and in my last reply I want the user to not feel
in any way obliged to fill in pmin-pascal, pmax-pascal.
and since a user reads this file from top to bottom, the order in which these
properties are shown to him is important, and it is the one above.

can we please make an exception?

for more hours than I would have liked. the allOf was provided with kindness by
Conor in my first revision.

testing it:
1. invalid yaml with both honeywell,pmax-pascal and honeywell,pressure-triplet
defined passes the schema check if the allOf is removed:

# make DT_SCHEMA_FILES=Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/pressure/honeywell,mprls0025pa.yaml DT_CHECKER_FLAGS=-m dt_binding_check
# echo $?
0

2. the same invalid yaml but with the allOf not removed issues this output:

[..]/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/iio/pressure/honeywell,mprls0025pa.example.dtb: pressure@18: honeywell,pmax-pascal: False schema does not allow [[84000]]
from schema $id: http://devicetree.org/schemas/iio/pressure/honeywell,mprls0025pa.yaml#

which is the expected behaviour. so AFAICT the allOf block is required, as well
as the redundant text for the humans that read the human-readable parts of the
bindings file.

invalid yaml example used above:

#include <dt-bindings/gpio/gpio.h>
#include <dt-bindings/interrupt-controller/irq.h>
i2c {
#address-cells = <1>;
#size-cells = <0>;

pressure@18 {
compatible = "honeywell,mprls0025pa";
reg = <0x18>;
reset-gpios = <&gpio3 19 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
interrupt-parent = <&gpio3>;
interrupts = <21 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_RISING>;

honeywell,pmax-pascal = <84000>;
honeywell,pressure-triplet = "0025PA";
honeywell,transfer-function = <1>;
vdd-supply = <&vcc_3v3>;
};
};

peter
