Ok. we don't expect shrinking if we set 'maxItems: 8'.

Thanks.

Ok great. I will set 'maxItems: 8' in that case in next revision.


With this, I will add 'maxItems: 8' in sram and memory-region properties.

If everything else looks good on schema in this revision, could you
please also review next (dts) patch in this series?

If that looks good, can I get your 'rb' on that?

so we can reduce scope of reviews for next revisions?
