Do we really need to support this property everywhere?

This fails validation:
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/arm/xen,dev-domid.example.dtb: virtio_block at 3000: xen,dev-domid: [[1]] is not of type 'object'
From schema: /home/rob/proj/git/linux-dt/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/virtio/mmio.yaml
The property has to be added to the virtio/mmio.yaml schema. If it is
not needed elsewhere, then *just* add the property there.
