There are existing nodes for the DSI host node. Please find them in 
arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6qdl.dtsi and arch/arm/boot/dts/imx6q.dts. The DSI 
host node contains two child nodes for i.MX6DL and another two for 
i.MX6Q.  Each child node has a reg property embedded.

Thanks for reviewing the patches.

Any idea how to handle the special case?  The existing child nodes for 
the DSI host node do have the reg properties embedded.
