BTW, subsequent to sending the fix I double checked my dt_binding_check logs and I saw: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/nvmem/u-boot,env.example.dtb: partition@0: Unevaluated properties are not allowed ('partition-u-boot-env' was unexpected) From schema: Documentation/devicetree/bindings/mtd/partitions/u-boot.yaml I think unevaluated property detection got better in v2022.08 of dt-schema so that is probably worth fixing too. I'll leave that one up to you ;) Thanks, Conor.
