Could you elaborate on "index of DSP CPU within the DSP cluster"?  From
the examples it looks like the reg values are unique even across
clusters.

I wonder whether we should be describing this at all in the device tree
given that the topology is discoverable in registers...  though that
applies to the PowerPC CPUs as well. :-)
