 - reg: Address and length of the register set for the device. Only one
   entry is expected, except for the "marvell,armadaxp-gpio" variant
   for which two entries are expected: one for the general registers,
-  one for the per-cpu registers.
+  one for the per-cpu registers. Not used for marvell,armada-8k-gpio.

Why can't use you use reg instead of offset?

I looked for how the other syscon user did, and I found the offset
usage. So I assumed it was the way to do it. But if you wan I can use a
reg property.
