dt-bindings: timer: Use non-empty ranges in example
On many arm64 qcom device trees, running `make dtbs_check` yells: timer@17c20000: #size-cells:0:0: 1 was expected It appears that someone was trying to assert the fact that sub-nodes describing frames would never have a size that's more than 32-bits big. That does indeed appear to be true for all cases I could find. Currently many arm64 qcom device tree files have a #address-cells and about in commit bede7d2d ("arm64: dts: qcom: sdm845: Increase address and size cells for soc"). That means the only way we can shrink them down is to use a non-empty ranges. Since forever it has said in "writing-bindings.txt" to "DO use non-empty 'ranges' to limit the size of child buses/devices". I guess we should start listening to it. I believe (but am not certain) that this also means that we should use "ranges" to simplify the "reg" of our sub devices by specifying an offset. Let's update the example in the bindings to make this obvious. Signed-off-by: Douglas Anderson <dianders@chromium.org> Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
