Hi, Kumar,=20
+   RapidIO is a definition of a system interconnect. This node add
quoted
+   the support for RapidIO processor in kernel. The node name is
+   suggested to be 'rapidio'.
+
+   Required properties:
+
+    - compatible : Using "fsl,rapidio-delta" for Freescale PowerPC
+      RapidIO controller.
+    - #address-cells : Address representation for=20
"rapidio" devices.
quoted
+      This field represents the number of cells needed to represent
+      the RapidIO address of the registers.
=20
Can you explain this a little further.  I'm a bit confused by =20
'RapidIO address of the registers'.
=20
I want to present "This field represents the number of cells [needed to
represent the RapidIO address] of the registers."
Maybe I should remove 'of the registers' to be more clear.

Thanks!
