Addresses aren't 16 bit AFAIK?

Look at "name" first, then look at "compatible", not
the other way around.

No way. "model" and "name" have nothing in common
semantically.

This should be handled by the OF matching stuff, there
is no direct connection between device tree naming and
Linux driver naming. I don't want to see this patch
going in without this problem being fixed first.
