+fsl,flexcan-v1.0 nodes
+-----------------------
+In addition to the required compatible-, reg- and interrupt-properties, you can
+also specify which clock source shall be used for the controller.
+
+CPI Clock- Can Protocol Interface Clock
+ This CLK_SRC bit of CTRL(control register) selects the clock source to
+ the CAN Protocol Interface(CPI) to be either the peripheral clock
+ (driven by the PLL) or the crystal oscillator clock. The selected clock
+ is the one fed to the prescaler to generate the Serial Clock (Sclock).
+ The PRESDIV field of CTRL(control register) controls a prescaler that
+ generates the Serial Clock (Sclock), whose period defines the
+ time quantum used to compose the CAN waveform.
+
+Can Engine Clock Source
+ There are two sources for CAN clock
+ - Platform Clock It represents the bus clock
+ - Oscillator Clock
+
+ Peripheral Clock (PLL)

+ Oscillator Clock
+
+- fsl,flexcan-clock-source : CAN Engine Clock Source.This property selects
+ the peripheral clock. PLL clock is fed to the
+ prescaler to generate the Serial Clock (Sclock).
+ Valid values are "oscillator" and "platform"
+ "oscillator": CAN engine clock source is oscillator clock.
+ "platform" The CAN engine clock source is the bus clock
+ (platform clock).
+
+- fsl,flexcan-clock-divider : for the reference and system clock, an additional
+ clock divider can be specified.
+- clock-frequency: frequency required to calculate the bitrate for FlexCAN.
+
+Note:
+ - v1.0 of flexcan-v1.0 represent the IP block version for P1010 SOC.
+ - P1010 does not have oscillator as the Clock Source.So the default
+ Clock Source is platform clock.
+Examples:
+
+ can0@1c000 {
+ compatible = "fsl,flexcan-v1.0";
+ reg = <0x1c000 0x1000>;
+ interrupts = <48 0x2>;
+ interrupt-parent = <&mpic>;
+ fsl,flexcan-clock-source = "platform";
+ fsl,flexcan-clock-divider = <2>;
+ clock-frequency = <fixed by u-boot>;
+ };
