This is probably O.K, for now, but really the tooling should be
extended so that DT files can be checked anywhere in the tree. I can
see more such embedded DT overlays appearing with time, and there is
nothing actually arm64 specific here, it is architecture agnostic. It
is just a PCIe device, there is no reason it could not be used on a
S390, Risc-V, or loongarch.
