Quoting writing schemas:

"When bindings cover multiple similar devices that differ in some 
properties,
those properties should be constrained for each device. This usually means:

  * In top level 'properties' define the property with the broadest 
constraints.
  * In 'if:then:' blocks, further narrow the constraints for those 
properties.
  * Do not define the properties within an 'if:then:' block (note that
    'additionalItems' also won't allow that)."


Since new properties cannot be introduced inside allOf / if:then, it is 
not possible to define
device-specific patternProperties for links directly under each 
condition like below

- if:
     properties:
       compatible:
         contains:
           enum:
             - ti,ds90ub960-q1
             - ti,ds90ub9702-q1
   then:
     properties:
       links:
         patternProperties:
           '^link@[0-3]$':

- if:
     properties:
       compatible:
         contains:
           const: ti,ds90ub954-q1

   then:
     properties:
       links:
	patternProperties:
	  '^link@[0-1]$':

Therefore, a broad top-level definition such as:

patternProperties:
   '^link@[0-3]$':

is required, with device-specific constraints applied later via 
conditional logic

This works for ports since we have a

patternProperties:
   '^port@[0-9a-f]+$':

already defined at /schemas/graph.yaml#/properties/ports which we refer 
in the top level schema

Note that an alternative could also be modeled by explicitly disallowing 
unused ports for ds90ub954,
namely port 2, port3 and port 5 but that approach would require changes 
in the driver, as it currently
assumes that TX ports start immediately after RX ports. Hence I 
preferred having ports 0, 1 and 2 for ds90ub954

The approach that was used in this patch was also hinted at in our 
earlier discussion at
https://lore.kernel.org/all/58b309d9-de03-4818-8d38-a27cc68466db@ideasonboard.com/
