checks: Remove check for graph child addresses

The dtc graph_child_address check can't distinguish between bindings
where there can only be a single endpoint, and cases where there can be
multiple endpoints.

In cases where the bindings allow for multiple endpoints but only one is
described false warnings about unnecessary #address-cells/#size-cells
can be generated, but only if the endpoint described have an address of
0 (A), for single endpoints with a non-zero address (B) no warnings are
generated.

A)
    ports {
	#address-cells = <1>;
	#size-cells = <0>;

	port@0 {
	    #address-cells = <1>;
	    #size-cells = <0>;

	    sourceA: endpoint@0 {
		reg = <0>
	    };
	};
    };

B)
    ports {
	#address-cells = <1>;
	#size-cells = <0>;

	port@0 {
	    #address-cells = <1>;
	    #size-cells = <0>;

	    sourceB: endpoint@1 {
		reg = <1>
	    };
	};
    };

Remove the check as it is somewhat redundant now that we can use schemas
to validate the full node.
