We need to rework this a little more:

The approach taken in this series is enable pre-ram for everything. I am
not sure that is the right direction.

https://github.com/devicetree-org/dt-schema/blob/e87ba2f515392c2a4694642063efb43023331ff6/dtschema/schemas/bootph.yaml#L70

patch #1: board generic changes: patch #1
patch #2-: board specific change (per board)

Make sure you use the correct property and document why this is needed
in the section added as well - esp for board generic changes introduced
into SoC.dtsi files.

Is this better done where the node is defined?

These patches only enable bootph-pre-ram for the nodes, that already had
bootph-pre-ram property in u-boot dts
patches for j784s4. And these are selected after removing unnecessary
nodes that had this property, so not added for
everything. Are there a nodes which seem to have unnecessary
bootph-pre-ram property according to you, need to remove?

I am little unclear about what nodes you refer with board generic vs
board specific bootph-pre-ram.
I have currently added bootph-pre-ram in board EVM dts files if the node
is disabled in SoC dtsi and enabled
in EVM dts (no point adding bootph-pre-ram in disabled node), or for
pinmuxes, etc. What is the segregation
you want in the patch, do you want some bootph-pre-ram to be moved from
where they are?

Okay, this I will fix.
