Right, I thought in a wrong way, in opposite it makes more sense now.
.dtsi
/* below the soc/ */
smb {
compatible = "simple-bus";
#address-cells = <2>;
#size-cells = <1>;
ranges = <0 0 0x40200000 0x10000>,
<1 0 0xa0000000 0x10000>;
};
.dts
smb {
ethernet@0,0 {
compatible = "smsc,lan9220", "smsc,lan9115";
reg = <0 0x0 0x10000>;
interrupts = <13>;
interrupt-parent = <&nvic>;
smsc,irq-active-high;
};
and looking again at .dtsi it seems to me that fpgaio should be moved
below the soc/ under separate bus interface which would hosts audio and
spi too or I keep missing things around device-tree?
I appreciate your help on this, thanks!
