Does this work? I tried to add an example like this and I got ...

Warning (reg_format): "reg" property in /gmi at 70009000/bus at 4 has invalid
length (4 bytes) (#address-cells == 1, #size-cells == 1)

I am wondering if we should just following the arm,pl172 example and
have ...

	cs4 {
		compatible = "simple-bus";
		#address-cells = <1>;
		#size-cells = <1>;
		ranges;

		nvidia,snor-cs = <4>;
		nvidia,snor-mux-mode;
		nvidia,snor-adv-inv;

		can at 0 {
			reg = <0 0x100>;
			...
		};

		...
	};

Cheers
Jon
