You should have a board-level compatible property here

Simply microblaze at 0 will do.

use 'xlnx,' for the prefix; this is a comment that I received on the
binding document that the stock ticker is an appropriate appreviation.

You should have a parent 'plb' bus node for all these devices to be children of.

- add manufacture prefix
- convert underscores to dashes
- drop "opb_ethernet"; there's no such thing

Just "xlnx,opb-ethernet-1.04.a" will do; or something like
"xlnx,opb-ethernet-1.04b","xlnx,opb-ethernet-1.04a" works too.

use 'xlnx,' for prefix.

'opb_uart16550' is bogus non-device; Always specify a version for IP
core compatible fields.  There was some talk about defining a
'sparse16550' or some such value to reflect things that were almost a
16550 but had a different register layout; but in the mean time leave
it out.

- change '_' to '-', add 'xlnx,'; etc.

Since you're bus uses the ranges property value to translate; the
device address should reflect the offset off the base of the bus:
opb_gpio at 20000

If instead your ranges property was empty then the full address still
works.  Address translation makes sense for the opb-opb-lite because
it's only got one translation range.  However, the plb-opb bridge
covers multiple ranges so it's probably easier to leave out the
translation.

Same comment as above; reg = <20000 10000>;  These comments go for all
the nodes below.

My patch to booting-without-of says that you should have a
'current-speed' property (instead of xlnx,baudrate) because it's a
standard property; but 'xlnx,baudrate' might be a suitable alternative
because this is a fixed speed device.  Segher, David; what say you?

There are no nodes on this bus.  What is the intended usage?  Also,
you cannot have two properties with the same name, I think the syntax
you want is:
ranges = <0 10000000 10000000 2 20000000 10000000>;

Also, these values won't work.  They state that you've got two address
range translations.  The first translates from address 10000000 to
address 0 (which makes sense).  The second translates from address
20000000 to address 1 (which overlaps the first region, only offset by
1 byte).

This is weird.  Is this representing a design with both a ppc and a
microblaze?  If so; I would generate 2 device trees.  One for each
processor.
