They most likely shouldn't be there. There are some warnings (make W=1
...) but they're hidden inside all sorts of warnings from am33*.dtsi
warnings. I should have been looking for those.

You're right. A lot of "has a unit name, but no reg or ranges property"
Removing the @s and giving them all unique names resolves these
warnings.

Thanks for looking. As I mentioned - I don't have any intention to make
a .dts/.dtsi for this rather obscure dev environment. It seems like it
wouldn't be useful. But the feedback has really helped keep me on track,
and hopefully avoiding scenarios where two wrongs make a right.
