Yeah right :) The YAML validation works even when the nodes are
disabled, so we somehow need to account for all of these devices' DTS.

The 4708 is effectively a 53010 which is why this is valid as a
fallback. Any node that defines switch ports and uses a SoC different
than the 53010 should use an appropriate "compatible" string though.
That's what is done for NSP.
