That comment is probably subject to discussion, but even if this 
interconnect is there physically, I'm not sure of the added value to add it.
It will add an extra level of indentation and that all. Moreover, it 
will mess up the physical address that are expressed using absolute 
value in the TRM with a less readable offset value.
In fact, most DTS files in the ARM directory are using a purely flat 
representation of the interconnect.

Assuming we will keep that, you should probably add a more generic 
compatible name after that one. Like "ti,s3220" or even "sonics,s3220", 
assuming that this IP is generic enough for other SoC.

The I2C IP and thus the driver is generic across OMAP generations and is 
even potentially used by other non-OMAP TI chips like DSP or Davinci. So 
having an extra compatible entry with "ti,i2c" or "ti, omap-i2c" seems 
mandatory.
