Missing ref to transceiver properties. Look at other CAN bindings.

reg is the second property, also in "required:" block.

can-phy if something like this exist. If not, then probably can-transceiver

The directory contains CAN controller bindings. This is a CAN transceiver
binding. And the only CAN transceiver binding I could find so far is this:
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/v6.16/source/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/phy/ti,tcan104x-can.yaml
The driver uses the generic PHY framework as the driver for the tja1145
does.

There is only one transceiver property(max-bitrate) which I don't need
because the max-bitrate is known for the device. So why should I add it
to the DT ?
I'm only aware of CAN controller bindings making use of the transceiver
property which I think is because the PHYs they are supporting with this
are very simple which need no or little configuration to operate and the
max-bitrate property is needed to limit the bitrate.

It's fine then, I guess.
