This is not the i3c bus, it's the MMIO mapping that allows us to specify
the individual i3c controller mappings as sensible offsets into the main
address space. Did you miss the ranges property there?

This is following the existing design for the i2c controllers.

The overrides are occurring at the &i3cX labels, not &i3c. Platform
level dts just connect at those labels to define overrides for each bus:

    &i3c0 {
            status = "okay";
            mctp-controller;
    };

    &i3c1 {
            status = "okay";
            mctp-controller;
    };

There is existing precedence for this layout; the i2c and pinctrl
mappings already use dtsi-internal labels. It keeps the bus definitions
more manageable.

Cheers,
