Its not a validation error, its just a validation warning. Not 
everything that JOSM warns about is necessarily incorrect.
As the JOSM startpage says:
"Roles defined in presets are now used. This may result in unexpected 
validator warnings for relations not yet know to JOSM."

If you give the ways that make up the route a blank role, the validator 
will accept that. It seems the presets expect the stop members to be 
numbered, eg stop_1, stop_2 etc, but that shouldn't be necessary.

So I think your route relation is correct as per the wiki guidance. I 
think the JOSM presets could be altered a bit to not warn about these 
things.
