The configuration address space has so far been specified in *ranges*,
however it should be specified in *reg* making it a platform MEM resource.
Hence used 'platform_get_resource_*' API to get configuration address
space in the designware driver.

Why should the cfg space be defined in *reg* instead of ranges?
Because what you end up using is a struct resource to represent the cfg space and
the conversion between ranges and resources breaks down for CFG space (we don't
have a flag in the resource flags to say this is CFG resource). Specifying it
as a *reg* property makes it a MEM resource and no special casing is needed.

Best regards,
Liviu
