What's the correct way to fix nodes for display platform devices? For
example, omap4-panda-common.dtsi has two connector nodes:
dvi0: connector at 0 {
compatible = "dvi-connector";
label = "dvi";
...
};
hdmi0: connector at 1 {
compatible = "hdmi-connector";
label = "hdmi";
...
};
Should I add the reg property, or should I rename the nodes to, say,
connector_dvi and connector_hdmi, or connector1 and connector2?
The index (reg) is not used for anything, but perhaps there could be
some use for it in the future (although I have no idea what the use
would be).
