Hi,

The reg property should indicate the hardware offset from the device base
address. The reg values above for 4 and 5 seem to be indexed instead :)
Please update to use real register offsets from the 0x1800c1c0 base
instead. If a reg offset + bit offset are needed, the #address-cells or
#pinctrl-cells can be used.

The main problem using an index is that you need to keep it in sync
between the dts and device driver. And if a new SoC variant adds an entry
between the registers, you end up having to renumber the index.

Regards,

Tony
