This patch cleans up the documentation of the device-tree binding for
the Flexcan devices on Freescale's PowerPC and ARM cores. Extra
properties are not used by the driver so we are removing them.

Grant,

Earlier, you had asked for a more specific name for the compatible
property of the Freescale flexcan device.  I still have not gotten a
more specific answer.  Hopefully Marc can give you more details about
the flexcan implementations.

Other than an agreement on the compatible property, I believe we have
agreement on all the other code changes in these patches.  Is this change
acceptable as is and if we get a better resolution on the fsl,flexcan
name later, we can update the documentation and driver then?

Thanks,
Robin

If there is no ip core version, then just stick with the
fsl,<soc>-flexcan name and drop "fsl,flexcan".  Marketing may say
flexcan is flexcan, but hardware engineers like to change things.
Trying to be too generic in compatible values will just lead to
problems in the future.

There are at least 2 versions of the flexcan ip core in the wild. Due to
lack of version numbers or other names I call them old and new here :).

The newer one supports rx fifo mode, whereas the older one doesn't. The
mainline flexcan driver just supports the new core [1]. The older core
is found on coldfire processors. I don't know if there are coldfire cpus
with the new flexcan core, too. The driver can be adopted to the old
core if needed.

The first cpus with the new core I got in touch with was the mx35
(arm11) and mx25 (arm9) both at the same time. Ask fsl which one was
released first. After this there was mx28 (arm9) and there should be an
mx53 (coretexa8) with flexcan too.
