This is not accurate AFAICS, because if the "reg" property is present
in the ACPI case, it will be returned then too.

What about using the following description instead of the above:

"Retrieve the value of the "reg" property for @fwnode which can be
either DT or ACPI node.  In the ACPI case, if the "reg" property is
missing, evaluate the _ADR object located under the given node, if
present, and provide its return value to the caller.

Return 0 on success or a negative error code.

This function can be used only if it is known valid to treat the _ADR
return value as a fallback replacement for the value of the "reg"
property that is missing in the given use case."
