Hrm... Freescale is using these 'fsl,device-id' properties, I'm
guessing they're basically the same thing as the 'cell-index' used in
the EMAC binding.

We should co-ordinate better on this, if it's to become a
convention...

That means we shouldn't coordinate on this, right?

Heh.  Either one is kind of ugly, I'll grant you.

But, many SoCs do have a notion of device "number", which is relevant
for programming other general control registers in places.  We need to
encode it somehow, and it would be good to have a consistent way of
doing it.
