Sorry but maybe I missed something.
the sysgcr is used for miscellaneous features and not only for the pin
controller mux, this is why it used syscon and defined in the dtsi:
gcr: system-controller@...00000 {
compatible = "nuvoton,npcm845-gcr", "syscon";
reg = <0x0 0xf0800000 0x0 0x1000>;
};

GCR (sysgcr) registers 0xf0800000-0xf0801000 - used for miscellaneous
features, not only pin mux.
GPIO0 0xf0010000-0xf0011000
GPIO1 0xf0011000-0xf0012000
...
GPIO7 0xf0017000-0xf0018000
