I mean specific to this driver. With standard properties I mean those
you can add everywhere like pinctrl, interrupts etc. But then yes I
agree you can pretty quickly start to argue...

Would in this particular case something like


	mcp2515: can at 0 {
		compatible = "microchip,mcp2515";
		reg = <0>;
		pinctrl-0 = <&pinctrl_can_int>;
		pinctrl-names = "default";
		clocks = <&clk16m>;
		interrupt-parent = <&lsio_gpio3>;
		interrupts = <13 IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING>;
		spi-max-frequency = <10000000>;
	};

be better?
