I mean I simply cannot make it work and I'm out of ideas (I'm also in an 
awkward timezone so it takes 24hrs for me to ask a question and get a 
response which leads to me making guesses instead of waiting).

nand-controller.yaml references nand-chip.yaml which references mtd.yaml 
which defines the "label" and "partitions" property.

I thought marvell,nand-controller.yaml could just say `$ref: 
nand-controller.yaml` and it would mean I'd get all the definitions down 
the chain but this doesn't seem to work the way I expect (or more likely 
I'm not doing it right). I thought it might have something to do with 
the different patternProperties pattern but even when I make that match 
what is used in nand-controller.yaml it doesn't seem to pick up those 
properties.
