This is a good idea IMO, thanks for writing it.

Should we also mention in this about the expected breakdown of things
between $soc.dtsi and $soc-$board.dtsi? There's commonly confusion about
things like oscillators and where they belong - particularly when the
SoC mandates that these oscillators be of a single frequency.
It may seem obvious to us what goes where, but certainly contributors
frequently get this wrong.

Cheers,
Conor.
