The IRQ, clocks and clocksource driver do NOT have a "struct device" to
begin with. They are not platform drivers, and cannot be platform
drivers,
as they must register so early in the boot process, before "struct
device"
is even a thing.
All they get is a pointer to the same devicetree node. Since all of
these
have to use the same registers, they need to use a shared regmap, which
they obtain by calling ingenic_tcu_get_regmap() below.
Then, when this driver's probe gets called, the regmap is retrieved and
attached to the struct device, and then the children devices will be
probed: the watchdog device, the PWM device, the OST device. These three
will retrieve the regmap by calling dev_get_regmap(dev->parent, NULL).

Yes, that's intended. You have a default value, that can be overriden
by a device property.

This is called from the PWM driver.

Rob already acked the bindings, which describe this property.
