There was a reason for having duplicate unit-addresses. See here
for my reasoning:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/e55d59a68f497c8f2eb406d40ae878b9@walle.cc/
But I've already noticed that it shouldn't be done it this way. The
DT check is already complaining.

What do you mean by DT resources? There is a new patch series in
preparation
where for example the watchdog has a new property
"kontron,assert-wdt-timeout-pin". Which IMHO should be go under the
watchdog
node.
Besides from that, there are actually three interrupt controllers, ie.
the
two full featured gpio controllers and one interrupt controller. Do you
think
it makes sense to combine that into the parent node eg. merging
different
thinks like an interrupt controller and the gpio controllers into a
single
interrupt mapping in the parent node.
See also:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-devicetree/0e3e8204ab992d75aa07fc36af7e4ab2@walle.cc/
Also please keep in mind, that these are only the current available
building
blocks of a sl28cpld. They are likely to be extended for other
functionalities.
So while it might be possible to merge the current nodes into the parent
I don't
know it that is possible for future blocks.
