It's a bit tricky. AFAICS, when I declare a node name pattern in my
specific binding in addition to the generic binding, the result is that
both of them apply, so I can't relax stricter requirements:

# raw-nand-chip.yaml
properties:
  $nodename:
    pattern: "^nand@[a-f0-9]$"

# fsl,elbc-fcm-nand.yaml
properties:
  $nodename:
    pattern: "^nand@[a-f0-9](,[0-9a-f]*)?$"

# dtc
/.../fsl,elbc-fcm-nand.example.dtb:
nand@1,0: $nodename:0: 'nand@1,0' does not match '^nand@[a-f0-9]$'
        from schema $id:
	http://devicetree.org/schemas/mtd/fsl,elbc-fcm-nand.yaml#

(I changed the second pattern to nand-fail@... and dtc warned about it
 mismatching too.)

Perhaps I'm missing a DT-schema trick to override a value/pattern.

Alternatively (pending discussion on patch 11/12), I might end up not
referencing raw-nand-chip.yaml.
