In patch 3/5 in this series (attached below), I made a change in how
device discovery works. Without that of_match stuff, the flexcan
driver was never getting its flexcan_probe function called. As soon
as I added that, it worked. Looking at the driver_register path, this
appeared to be the "correct" way to implement the device discovery.
Did I miss something?
Thanks,
Robin
The OpenFirmware devices are not matched without specifying
an of_match array. Introduce that array as that is used for
matching on the Freescale P1010 processor.

I kept the of_match for "fsl,flexcan-v1.0" for the time being. I will
happily drop it for final submission once I have a boot loader worked
up that matches on either string.
