I was using an unusual method to compile DTs which produced the warning:

$ cpp -nostdinc -I include -I arch -undef -x assembler-with-cpp 
arch/arm/boot/dts/bcm47094-asus-rt-ac88u.dts processed.dts &&

Now that I know how to properly compile the dt files, I don't see any 
issues before the fix DTC commit or after the revert:

Sorry for the noise, I'll be more careful in the future.
