This is not nice. Here you introduce a fsl,mmdc compatible claiming all
mmdc are compatible to each other and in the driver code you have:

static const u32 imx6q_mmdc_io_dsm_offset[]
static const u32 imx6dl_mmdc_io_dsm_offset[]

which proves they are *not* compatible.

You do this just to share a

imx6_pm_get_base(&pm_info->mmdc_base, "fsl,mmdc");

across the different i.MX6 SoCs.

You can sanitize this by introducing a SoC struct which you populate
differently for the SoCs

static pm_soc_data imx6q_data {
	.mmdc_compat = "fsl,imx6q-mmdc",
};

And by putting cpu_type, mmdc_io_num and others in this struct you can
also remove the if(cpu_is_x()) else if (cpu_is_y()) else...

Good point.

Anson, the change below is a demonstration of Sascha's suggestion.
Sascha, correct me if I misunderstood your comment.

Looks good. That's exactly what I meant. Maybe the cpu_type field can
even be removed the way you did it.
