I am bothered with this issue and I can't see what's wrong with my binding
export-symbols.yaml and why it has impacts on other binding such as the
example in fixed-partitions.yaml.

Can you help me in understanding what I missed that leads to this behavior.

The idea in export-symbols.yaml was:
  - Constraint the name of the node to be 'export-symbols' with:
      properties:
        $nodename:
          const: export-symbols

  - Constraint properties in the node to be in the form
      'label_name = <phandle>;'
    Many properties of this form are allowed.

  - Do not allow any other kind of properties.

I thought that only bindings referencing export-symbols.yaml or bindings
using the 'export-symbols' node name would have been impacted but it seems
the it is not the case.

Best regards,
Hervé
