By "anything new", you mean new buses, not new platforms, right?
What's a platform bus device today could be a different kernel bus
type tomorrow with no DT change. So this isn't really enforceable.

I don't completely agree that omitting dma-ranges is wrong and that
new DTs have to have dma-ranges simply because there is much precedent
of DTs with dma-ranges omitted (just go look at PPC). If a bus has no
bus to cpu address translation nor size restrictions, then no
dma-ranges should be allowed. Of course, DT standards can and do
evolve and we could decide to be stricter here, but that hasn't
happened. If it does, then we need to make that clear in the spec and
enforce it.
