Indeed, cfr. "Add ports hierarchy, as an alternative to port." in the
patch description. Some users use port, other use ports with one or
two port subnodes.

No, you can still use port:

+oneOf:
+  - required:
+      - port
+  - required:
+      - ports

When using ports, no further requirements are set, but perhaps port at 0
should be made required in that case?

The original example didn't even have the original required input
port node, so it was incomplete.

arch/arm64/boot/dts/renesas/r8a774c0-cat874.dts has two port subnodes.
Is that wrong?

Thanks!
