Yes, I believe this error is expected since dtc has not been yet
updated. Below the patch for adapting dtc to this new situation and
keep the robots happy.

How should we proceed?

Thanks,

    dtc: checks: spi: Allow describing flashes with two CS
    
    The Xilinx QSPI controller has two advanced modes which allow the
    controller to behave differently and consider two flashes as one single
    storage.
    
    One of these two modes is quite complex to support from a binding point
    of view and is the dual parallel memories. In this mode, each byte of
    data is stored in both devices: the even bits in one, the odd bits in
    the other. The split is automatically handled by the QSPI controller and
    is transparent for the user.
    
    The other mode is simpler to support, it is called dual stacked
    memories. The controller shares the same SPI bus but each of the devices
    contain half of the data. Once in this mode, the controller does not
    follow CS requests but instead internally wires the two CSlevels with
    the value of the most significant address bit.
    
    Supporting these two modes will involve core changes which include the
    possibility of providing two CS for a single SPI device.
