Please use a numerical value instead.  You can then define it in
include/dt-bindings/*

This is only required if you supply more than one child node.  Is that
the plan?  I ask because you only have one child node in the example
below.

This document is pretty hard to read.  Please line everything up
nicely, so it's easy on the eye:

- compatible: 	      "atmel,sama5d2-flexcom"
- reg: 		      shall be the offset/length value for Flexcom dedicated I/O registers
  		      (without USART, TWI or SPI registers).
- clocks: 	      shall be the Flexcom peripheral clock from PMC.
- #address-cells:     should be <1>
- #size-cells: 	      should be <1>
- ranges: 	      one range for the full I/O register region (including USART, TWI and
  		      SPI registers)
- atmel,flexcom-mode: shall be a string among { "spi", "usart", "i2c", "twi" }.
  		      "i2c" and "twi" are synonymous.

Please point to the other documentation.

../uart/<blah>
../spi/<blah>
../i2c/<blah>

What references this node?  If nothing, then you can remove the label.
