  - reg : Offset and length of the register set for the device
  - interrupts : <IRQ> where IRQ is the interrupt number.
+ - clocks : phandles for the clocks, see the description of clock-names below.
+   The phandle for the "ic_clk" clock is required. The phandle for the "pclk"
+   clock is optional. If a single clock is specified but no clock-name, it is
+   the "ic_clk" clock. If both clocks are listed, the "ic_clk" must be first.
 
 Recommended properties :

 Optional properties :

+    "pclk", the interface clock, required for register access.
