be claimed, otherwise the whole DE2 space is inaccessible.

Add a device tree binding of the DE2 part as a sub-bus.
Where did you get the info that it was a bus?
There's no direct evidence, just some guess.

The DE2 is a whole part that is just allocated a memory
space at the user manual, and the SRAM controls the
access to all modules in the DE2.

So it might be a bus.

Implement it as a bus is a clear representation on A64.
Since there is already syscon for same mmio region, we migh as well use it 
when loading ccu-sun8i-de2 driver on A64.

Other options, like SRAM driver or bus driver, might better represent HW, but 
then we would have two DT nodes covering same mmio region, which I think is 
not really acceptable.

Any suggestions?

BTW, H6 has same design in this regard.

Best regards,
Jernej
