Thanks!

Only "partitions" node has no unit address. All subnodes  have unit
addresses and therefore have to have reg property. I've just realized
that "fixed-partitions.yaml" is almost my case. It looks like I can
copy'n'paste  "required" and "*properties".
Do you mind if I don't reinvent the wheel and reuse this good
practice?

Here's what I got (no any warnings appears):

+description: |
+  Sercomm is one of hardware manufacturers providing SoCs used in home
routers.
+  The Sercomm partition map table contains information about non-standard
+  partition offsets and sizes (depending on the bad blocks presence and
their
+  locations). Partition map is used by many Sercomm-based Ralink devices
+  (e.g. Beeline, Netgear).
