I'm afraid this will become a messy DT structure, once device nodes for the
registers just before, between, and after these 2 registers will be added...
There's really only a single multi-function sysctrl device here, using a 4 KiB
block at 0x4000c000, containing a mix of:
1. Clock Control Registers (Table 6.1 [*]),
2. Reset Control (Table 6.2 [*]),
3. System Configuration (Table 6.3 [*]).
Looks a lot like the mix used in the Amiga's custom chip block at 0xdff000,
which also cannot be separated into logical blocks without listing individual
registers ;-)
So I suggest to have a DT binding for the whole block, and a clock driver
matching against the whole block, registering all clocks and a small reset
controller driver.
