I think Peter had to add these explicitly because the defaults are 2 and
1, respectively, and DTC was warning about this. I suppose the "reg"
property could be adjusted to use the defaults, but on the other hand I
find that it's good if the examples match reality and we need size-cells
to be 2 on Tegra.

Either way is fine with me, though.
