It's not 'used in all controllers' but used in all devices. But yes, it
does mean a device node could have any of the properties.

The schema for the device must have all possible properties in its
schema either directly or via $ref's. There's not a way to say if the
parent controller is X, then apply these controller child device
properties.

Who would apply/$ref this in your schema?

This is the pattern that simply doesn't work. "^.*@[0-9a-f]+$" is
entirely independent of a device schema and there's not 1 schema that
has all possible properties.

We could at least limit nodes to allow one set of controller specific
properties (but not necessarily the correct one):

allOf:
- $ref: spi-peripheral-props.yaml#
- oneOf:
- $ref: samsung,spi-peripheral-props.yaml#
- $ref: cdns,qspi-nor-peripheral-props.yaml#

And then in each of the above schemas we need:

anyOf:
- required: [ vendor,prop1 ]
- required: [ vendor,prop2 ]
- ... for all the controller specific properties

The last part keeps the vendor specific schema from being true if none
of the properties are present.

I mean it doesn't have the bug in dtschema preventing
unevaluatedProperties from fully working correctly.
