I guess this topology is for one specific platform that includes the
TC9563?  Since it's a PCIe switch, I assume it could also be used in
other platforms with other topologies?

How so?
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250124101038.3871768-3-krishna.chundru@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
adds a schema "n-fts" property, but this series doesn't mention
"n-fts".  This series *does* add this:

  of_property_read_u8_array(node, "nfts", cfg->nfts, 2);

Is that supposed to be the same thing, or does "nfts" magically match
"n-fts"?
