[POWERPC] #address-cells & #size-cells properties are not inherited
Fix error in booting-without-of.txt that indicates that a node can inherit its #address-cells and #size-cells definitions from its parent's parent. This is not correct. Signed-off-by: Mark A. Greer <mgreer@mvista.com> Signed-off-by: Paul Mackerras <paulus@samba.org>

In general, the format of an address for a device is defined by the
|
||||
parent bus type, based on the #address-cells and #size-cells
|

property. In the absence of such a property, the parent's parent
|

values are used, etc... The kernel requires the root node to have

those properties defining addresses format for devices directly mapped

properties. Note that the parent's parent definitions of #address-cells
|
||||
and #size-cells are not inhereted so every node with children must specify
|
||||
them. The kernel requires the root node to have those properties defining
|

addresses format for devices directly mapped on the processor bus.
|

|

Those 2 properties define 'cells' for representing an address and a
|
||||
size. A "cell" is a 32-bit number. For example, if both contain 2
