Good point. As sgmiisys is defined in dtsi it's not so relevant in practise though, as the SoC components are of course always present even if we don't use them. Probably it is still better to not be overly strict on the presence of things we may not even use, not even emit an error message and silently break something else, so yes, worth fixing imho.
