No!  Don't do this because it is not true!

Instead, add your board name to canyonlands.c in canyonlands_probe().
It's not the most scalable solution, but it keeps you from lying about
your hardware in the .dts file.

I'm working on a more scalable solution for this, but for now just add
your specific board to canyonlands_probe().
