Whilst describing a device and not a bus, simple-mfd is modelled on
simple-bus where child nodes are iterated and registered as platform
devices. Some complex devices, e.g. the Aspeed LPC controller, can
benefit from address space mapping such that child nodes can use the
regs property to describe their resources within the multi-function
device.

No objections to this, but this is all implied by having a reg property.

Thanks for clarifying. I wasn't sure so I wrote the patch with the
thought that we could drop it if it wasn't necessary. Regardless, I
think being explicit about the properties is nice.
