I believe the idea is that the file should either say

+F:   arch/arm64/boot/dts/cix/

if the two of you intend to be maintainers for everything under cix/.
You don't need to list every specific file.

Otherwise it should say

+F:   arch/arm64/boot/dts/cix/sky/

with its own subdirectory if you only intend to be maintaining the sky family.
