   A list of DT properties from the 'properties' section that
   must always be present.
 
+additionalProperties / unevaluatedProperties
+  Keywords controlling how schema will validate properties not matched by this
+  schema's 'properties' or 'patternProperties'. Each schema is supposed to
+  have exactly one of these keywords in top-level part, so either
+  additionalProperties or unevaluatedProperties. Nested nodes, so properties
+  being objects, are supposed to have one as well.
+
+  * additionalProperties: false
+      Most common case, where no additional schema is referenced or if this
+      binding allows subset of properties from other referenced schemas.
+
+  * unevaluatedProperties: false
+      Used when this binding references other schema whose all properties
+      should be allowed.
+
+  * additionalProperties: true
+      Rare case, used for schemas implementing common set of properties. Such
+      schemas are supposed to be referenced by other schemas, which then use
+      'unevaluatedProperties: false'.  Typically bus or common-part schemas.
+
 examples
   Optional. A list of one or more DTS hunks implementing the
   binding. Note: YAML doesn't allow leading tabs, so spaces must be used instead.
