I see the mail from Stephen Warren for adding a check stating that

"ePAPR 1.1 section 2.2.1.1 "Node Name Requirements" specifies that any
node that has a reg property must include a unit address in its name
with value matching the first entry in its reg property. Conversely, if
a node does not have a reg property, the node name must not include a
unit address."

The soc node we have does not have a reg property ?
