That is also required and I have submitted patch for the same -

With DT support, I am getting dev_id as -

 - Without "reg" property: d_can.16 and d_can.17,
   (I believe it changes dynamically here)

 - With "reg" property: 481cc000.d_can and 481d0000.d_can

Which is not so intuitive, I would like to see them as per Spec/TRM, so 
doesn't this patch make sense?

Similar thing has already been done for other platforms too.

Thanks,
Vaibhav
