The existing example lacks the GIC interrupt controller property

Will remove, thank you for pointing that out!

coherence property making the kernel do more work on maintaining
CPU caches on ARM64 although the VMBus trancations are cache-coherent.

Add the GIC node, specify DMA coherence, and define interrupt-parent
and interrupts properties in the example to provide a complete reference
for platforms utilizing GIC-based interrupts, and add the DMA coherence
property to not do extra work on the architectures where DMA defaults to
non cache-coherent.

Last time I said: not tested by automation.
Now: I see automation build failures, although I do not see anything
incorrect in the code, so that's a bit surprising. Please confirm that
binding was tested on latest dtschema.
They weren't for which I am sorry. Read through

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v6.14-rc2/devicetree/bindings/writing-schema.html

and was able to see and fix the break by bringing the YAML to [1].
Getting now this

/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/bus/microsoft,vmbus.example.dtb: 
vmbus@ff0000000: 'dma-coherent', 'interrupts' do not match any of the 
regexes: 'pinctrl-[0-9]+'
         from schema $id: 
http://devicetree.org/schemas/bus/microsoft,vmbus.yaml#

so maybe I need to add some more to the "requires" section. Will follow
other examples as you suggested.

I fail to see how this is relevant here. This is example only of vmbus.
Look how other bindings are done. Drop the example.
The bus refers to the interrupt controller, and I didn't have it, so
added it :) Now I in other examples that is not required, and the
tooling generates fake intc's. Appreciate your advice very much!

Use proper defines for known constants.
Will do as in [1], thank you!
