Sorry, I was probably misleading. All I really meant is that I don't
know enough about these FSL bus bridge arrangements to assess if this
representation is the most sensible one. I'm presuming that this
chipselect bridge unit is a more-or-less standard ASIC appearing on
lots of the FSL chips, so it would be nice to have a standard binding
for them, as we do for the roughly-equivalent EBC bridge on 4xx.
