Yes, but those values shouldn't be used.  It's a leftover from the old
way of hardcoding things and describing the hardware with kconfig rather
than the device tree.

If the offset is not relocatable or discoverable, it should stay in the
device tree.  If you have an old chip you wouldn't have
fsl,cpm1-spi-reloc and thus you'd still have "0x3d80 0x30" in reg.

I'm not sure why I missed that, but this patch is for cpm1-spi, not
cpm2-spi...

Even if you insist on keeping your board dts out-of-tree, there should
at least be a binding in-tree.

BTW, more specific compatibles should come first.
