Well, I wrote above: "Well, no. Let's wait. I don't think we need it."
My question remains "What should we be naming the device tree node in
general.  Line 5 of the fsl-flexcan.txt file specifically calls the node
"fsl,flexcan-v1.0"  In the .dts file the freescale patches introduces into
the arch/powerpc portion of the kernel, they call it that same thing.
We should provide a patch removing that doc. The version suffix does not
follow the device tree convention. A proper compatibility string would be:

  "fsl,p1010-flexcan", "fsl,flexcan"

But as the Flexcan on the P1010 is not treated differently,
"fsl,flexcan" is just fine. Also, the v1.0 is only for the PowerPC SOCs
(ignoring ARM).
Likewise, in the code already checked into uboot it is the same name.
Whether it is needed or not for the clock frequency, it does need to
be consistent between the .dts file and the driver for device discovery
to work.
Yes, depending on what we decide we need to clean that up as well.

Wolfgang.
