There's only once device here, make it const rather than enum.

Drop the comment btw, it doesn't make sense given you have an enum that
will allow for more devices and it being a fallback is obvious. That
said, given what you told me on the last version
| Yes there are a few differences visible to the software, for example the

I don't think your ordering here is correct. The 96714 should fall back
to the 96714f, not the opposite that you have here, as the f is the
version which supports fewer features.

I think this should be:

oneOf:
- const: maxim,max96714f
- items:
- enum:
- maxim,max96714
- const: maxim,max96714f

Cheers,
Conor.
