You have to document it. Whether it's 1 or 3 schema files depends on
where we end up, but the top-level one should reference the others if
it's more than 1 file:
child-node:
type: object
$ref: "/schemas/foo/child-node.yaml#"

*it Happens.
Those cases are now blocking my adding a check that they are
undocumented. There's no shortage of examples of what not to do.

This way.

This doesn't make sense IMO because GPIO is not a sub-function of the
pinctrl h/w. They are peers.
