Removing the child nodes in the example doesn't address my comment. You 
still have them in the schema. IOW, this patch should be dropped unless 
you have reasons for child nodes other than I want to partition the OS 
drivers a certain way and creating DT nodes instantiates them for me.

Obviously dropping this patch doesn't prevent me from instantiating the 
sub devices since it's not going to be done via DT anymore. Would you 
rather I replaced this patch with one adding a link to the online 
documentation [0] for them in the main description? I had left them in 
as I wasn't sure if you wanted the descriptions dropped entirely or not.

And yes, partition of the services is why I had originally gone for 
different drivers for the different aspects. Some of the services, like 
the RNG or reprogramming the FPGA from Linux have obvious subsystems to 
put them under, if it was just the eclectic mix of Microchip FPGA 
specific items I'd have not bothered with the partitioning.

Cheers,
Conor.
