Document the stm32 debug bus. The debug bus is responsible for
checking the debug sub-system accessibility before probing any related

What sort of bus it is? What protocol? Looks like rather fake wrapping
node. You cannot just organize children in MMIO and call it a "bus".
just to justify having child nodes.

It is a standard APB bus, gated through the debug configuration,
dedicated for debug peripherals.

What stuff is here? Your driver does not use it at all.

I listed the reg property so that it is clear what memory range
the debug bus covers. Peripherals under it should be in that range.
Do you prefer no reg and explicit ranges property with the memory
range in it?

I don't get why children need to reference the parent. If you have such
relationship, then the access-controllers are redundant, no?

They can reference the parent, but nothing prevents them to reference
a different access controller, if needed. It's not only the parent
that is referenced, it is also the argument representing the
specific configuration to check.

For now, the peripherals in this patchset all check the
same configuration bits, but there are others that differ,
so I need per-node property.

No peripherals on this bus can function properly without some
bits of debug configuration being set, so I made the property
mandatory.

So the same clock as child? Another argument that this node is not a
true bus node.

In fact, I do not need to manipulate the clock at bus level. I'll
simply remove it for V2 and let the peripherals enable the bus clock
when needed. Thank you.
