These nodes are required to get the fdma driver working
on STiH407 based silicon.

I'm not familiar with the FDMA driver, so can't comment knowledgeably,
but the <dev> part of <dev>@<base_address> should only describe the
type of hardware.  I believe in this case it should just be
dma at 08e20000.  Also notice the leading zero in the address, which I
believe mitigates possible confusion.  Then you be more specific with
the label, so something like 'fdma-audio' seems appropriate here.
Ok, can change to that format in v3.

I personally find padding up to 32bits helpful in the addresses.
None of the stih407-family nodes I can see have this padding, including
the ones merged by you.
Nither of these two facts mean it's correct.
I thought it was a 'personal' thing. If it is mandated by the spec, then that
is different.
I'm happy to write a patch to correct them all.
Are you sure your actually correcting anything? Where does it say you
should have a leading zero?
Bear in mind that this isn't a hard and fast rule.  Both work and are
legal.  I just think the padding is more consistent.
Surely adding a patch with how the nodes are currently formatted, is more consistent
than adding a patch with padding?

Peter.
