I have gone through example for address-cells and size-cells in following link:
http://devicetree.org/mediawiki/index.php?title=Device_Tree_Usage&stable=1#CPU_addressing

which indicates that these fields are for child "reg".
I think, here in child node there is no "reg". so there is no use
of address-cells and size-cells propeties.

Correct me if I am wrong here?
