The problem is any property with a vendor prefix has to define a type.
There's not a way to define a 'common vendor property' and distinguish
both cases in the meta-schemas. I'd like to come up with a more robust
mechanism where we just detect if a property has a defined type or
not. It should be possible to extract that. (Related, I also want to
check for conflicting types.)

How many cases of 'ti,prus' do you expect to have and what's the range
of number of phandles? Either you should just not have the common
schema and just define the properties in each consumer or don't put
additional constraints into the consumer schemas (i.e omit the
properties in 'properties' and use 'unevaluatedProperties').

Also, I think you can get rid of 'ti,pruss-gp-mux-sel'. Can't it just
be an arg cell in 'ti,prus' entries?
