I am not an expert on yaml, in fact they quite confuse me, but I
believe the proper solution is likely to document them in the yaml.
When I built the device tree without the sound-dai-cells, it threw a
message indicating that it needed to be there when it is configured to
operate.  I didn't see the schema warning that you noted, but my
schema could have been out of date.  Looking at the sai nodes and the
yaml file, it appears that the sound-dai-cells is listed in the yaml.
