SoMs usually do not have DTSes because they cannot be run on their own.
SoMs almost always require a baseboard/carrier. Therefore this should
not be DTS, but that was not my comment.

... so you basically say it cannot be a DTS.

Test the DTS - make dtbs_check (there are several
variations/arguments/helpers):
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.rst

But you just did it, didn't you? This is a DTS.

Anyway, I wanted DT bindings tests for DTS. Not actual tests on
hardware, because the compatibles do not matter in that aspect.

Best regards,
