I was when I wrote that, but now I think I need to consult my spell
book.

It appears the incantation I should be using is

  make ARCH=arm defconfig
  make ARCH=arm dt_binding_check \
     DT_SCHEMA_FILES=Documentation/devicetree/bindings/spi/spi-mux.yaml

I can see the simple failures (not sure how I missed them). But one
that remains is:

Warning (spi_bus_bridge): /example-0/spi/spi-mux@0: node name for SPI
buses should be 'spi'

I could fix that by having

 spi {
    spi@0 {
       compatible = "spi-mux";
    };
 };

Is that what we want? Or should I be adding awareness of spi-muxes to
dtc?
