'reg: property has invalid length' with new JSON-schema bindings

Hi Rob,

I'm finishing up a patch series that adds device tree support for a backlight driver and I made the bindings use the new JSON schema. I'm running into a problem with the reg property in the examples and I can reproduce the issue by adding an example to the trivial bindings:

b/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/trivial-devices.yaml index d79fb22bde39..bdab6a015db4 100644

 ...

'make dt_binding_check' fails with the following error:

Documentation/devicetree/bindings/trivial-devices.example.dts:11.5-18:

I see that dt-extract-example hard codes those two cell values to 1:

The I2C buses for my board (qcom-msm8974) sets #size-cells to 0. Do you have any suggestions for how I can correct this issue? I can make the binding check happy by adding a length (reg = <0x38 0x4>;) but I assume that we shouldn't do that for I2C addresses like this.

I make the check happy by including an i2c node in my example.

examples:

    i2c {
        #address-cells = <1>;
        #size-cells = <0>;

        isl29028@38 {
                compatible = "isil,isl29028";
                reg = <0x38>;
        };
    };

Sorry about the noise.

Brian
