This sounds like the next Yanny vs. Laurel... I fail to see any json. ;)
Also, it may help my understanding to be CC'ed on the cover letter, too?

404 for the schema. Where does one find an explanation?

Mani is now officially reviewer and the closest I have to a
co-maintainer. I suggest we add him here in some form. I assume this is
independent of MAINTAINERS patterns though, or will get_maintainers.pl
parse this, too?

You forgot the S700 as another quad-core Cortex-A53 SoC.
Also, arm or Arm rather than ARM these days?

Objection. You've managed to turn a perfectly human-comprehensible text
into a machine-parseable representation incomprehensible for humans.
First, there should remain some free-text explanation of the values
defined here. Are comments allowed after the value or indented maybe?
Alternatively we could have a per-vendor file à la vendor-prefixes.txt,
but that would seem inefficient.
Next, the above items construct is horrible. What about nested oneOf:
+ - items:
+ - oneOf:
+ - items:
+ - enum:
+ - lemaker,guitar-bb-rev-b
+ - const: lemaker,guitar
+ - items:
+ - enum:
+ - allo,sparky
+ - cubietech,cubieboard6
+ - const: actions,s500
This grouping is much clearer to me and hopefully to anyone adding
further base boards for the module.
We will have the same issue for the BPi-S64 module with S700 below.

Please make the board compatible an enum, even if only one is listed
today. That makes it clearer where/how (and easier) to add new boards.
