Move additionalProperties here.

Move additionalProperties here.

blank line

Since you've constrained the node name, then the only possible value 
here is 0xff01?

OTOH, I don't know that we want to enumerate all possible values here 
especially if there could be lots of vendor modes. But then again, maybe 
better to just wait and see if that becomes a problem.

With those nits fixed,
