This is for distinguishing multiple controllers on the SOC but other
registers and bits might differ. Isn't it preferable to have a property
for controller id instead of adding many registers to DT?

The device type can be set on multiple SOCs, why are you adding a
mandatory property only for 8m?

There should probably be a separate patch with documented DT bindings.
