I do think your fix is correct in that it results in a proper tree, but
the examples are not supposed to describe the node in a fully described
DT tree, but rather just show an example of the particular binding.

I therefor think that it would be appropriate to reduce that second
example to just:

spinlock@30e00000 {
  compatible = "ti,am654-hwspinlock";
  reg = <0x30e00000 0x1000>;
  #hwlock-cells = <1>;
};

Because the rest has nothing to do with this binding.

That said, this example is now the same example as the first one, just
with different compatible, so I think we should drop the entire second
example instead.


PS. While we're doing that, we should also remove the "hwspinlock: "
label from the first example.

Bjorn
