It's a schema that always passes validation. It's purpose here is just to say you are using this common property for this binding.

Yes, if you change it to a string value for example, it should fail. (Only if DT_SCHEMA_FILES is not set without my kbuild changes)
You should also add 'additionalProperties: false' at the top level of your schema and then it will also fail if you don't list ngpios in properties.
