This follows the bindings defined almost two years ago. There was a lot
of discussion back then and this is what we agreed upon. #address-cells
and #size-cells are needed as per the PCI device tree bindings and the
ranges property needed because the PCIe root ports translate addresses
between the host bridge and the PCI endpoint devices.

We actually rely on the parent-child relationship in drivers, so we
can't just go and reorganize things at will. This is documented in the
existing binding for host1x, which again, was agreed upon a long time
ago.
As for the simple-bus compatible, I think that was used way back to make
sure of_platform_populate() gets called. I suppose we could drop it and
call of_platform_populate() from the driver if its not there. The reason
why we never considered cases where it would probe as simple-bus is that
it was deemed unreasonable for a driver to bind to simple-bus.

Actually this follows the rules that we've been following with every DTS
so far. Nodes with a unit address go first, sorted by unit address. They
are followed by nodes without a unit address, sorted alphabetically.
I'd prefer keeping it this way for consistency across Tegra DTS files.
