Either form is an array. The DT yaml encoding maintains the
bracketing, so how the schema is defined matters. To some extent the
tools will process the schema to support both forms of bracketing, but
this has turned out to be fragile and just doesn't work for phandle
arrays. I'm working on further changes that will get rid of the yaml
encoded DT format and validate DTB files directly. These obviously
have no bracketing and needing the DTS source files to change goes
away. However, to be able to construct the internal format for
validation, I do need the schemas to have more information on what
exactly the phandle-array contains.
