Removing the .dts file removes the ability to boot the newly added board... The issue here is that we are sharing board .dtsi for boards that can be equipped with different pin-compatible SiPs (Ri-Car H3, M3-W, M3-N), while not all SoC support has been enabled and/or tested. As the board .dtsi references on-SoC devices using phandles, the new r8a77965.dtsi declares placeholders for the devices that are not yet enabled/tested. This worked fine for r8a7796.dtsi before, but causes dtc warnings due to recent improvements in DT validation. I think the simplest way to fix this is to add reg properties to the placeholders, as Simon did for the last two placeholders in r8a7796.dtsi in commit 4316989537a6ed53 ("arm64: dts: renesas: r8a7796: add reg properties to pciec[01] nodes").
