I think this reads and writs to some IOMEM space, so you really need
here 'reg'. That's the problem with such old bindings... binding is
broken, DTS is half-baked or non-existing, driver has 20 years.

BTW, why converting this old binding? Do you have any interest in
actually running MIPS?

I assume you did not check Rob's dt-convert branch to avoid
duplicated... because he did convert EXACTLY this binding. And more from
Lantiq.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
