Shouldn't mpc8313 have:
compatible = "fsl,mpc8313-tdm", "fsl,mpc8315-tdm"?

I thought we were going to use 8313 as the canonical implementation, not
8315.

Just say there's two reg resources, and that the first is the TDM
registers and the second is the TDM DMAC registers.

It's typically not going to be the actual physical address, but rather
an offset that gets translated through a parent node's ranges.

Remove "value type"; it's standard.

Will this frequency ever need to be > 4GHz?

Might want to specify as u32 or u64, as ePAPR suggests.

What is "tdm-err-intr-type"?  The interrupt specifier encoding is
defined by the interrupt controller.  There might be one cell, two
cells, four cells, etc.  Remove "value type", it's standard.

Use a forward slash -- this isn't a Windows filesystem path. :-)

fsl,tdm-max-time-slots

No device_type

Show a real clock-frequency, perhaps with a comment saying it's
typically filled in by boot software.

That phy-handle is invalid syntax, perhaps you meant:

	phy-handle = <&zarlink1>;

> +		fsl-max-time-slots = <128>

Missing semicolons on the last two properties.
