Hi Rob,

Thanks for the review.

I'll fix that.

The label here are used to 'name' each H/W instance. And so far there can
be a up to 3 instances with the currently available devices, but that
doesn't mean there couldn't be more in the future. So I did not want to
limit it here.

OK I'll fix all of those.

So something like oneOf with a list then?

Yeah I had tried to define something like that but I couldn't make pass
dt-binding-check wihtout any errors/warnings.

Can you point me to a recent example using this syntax?
Last time I check I couldn't find one.

Also I am not quite clear on the mechanism, you said to create a
patterProperties and then I wouols also have to define the individual port
themselves so I would have something like this:

port@0:
type: object
additionalProperties: false

properties:
reg:
const: 0
description: Slice 0 Port A

label:
description: Port name. Usually the pin group name

port@1:
type: object
additionalProperties: false

properties:
reg:
const: 1
description: Slice 0 Port B

label:
description: Port name. Usually the pin group name

port@2:
type: object
additionalProperties: false

properties:
reg:
const: 2
description: Slice 1 Port A

label:
description: Port name. Usually the pin group name

port@3:
type: object
additionalProperties: false

properties:
reg:
const: 3
description: Slice 1 Port B

label:
description: Port name. Usually the pin group name

And then in some way reference the patternProperties?
Or just put it before the individual ports?
