Needs a vendor prefix.
Thanks. I'll use "samsung,sysreg-phandle".
No '-phandle'.
Will use "samsung,sysreg" next patch series.

Is there more than 1 FSYS? If not, you can just get the node by its
compatible.
The phandle can be differed each exynos SoCs, AFAIK. I think other
exynos SoCs since exnos7 will need this but not upstreamed yet...
That's still fine. You really only need a phandle if there is more than
1 instance on a given platform.

Of course you could end up with multiple compatible strings to deal with,
but you might need that anyway as the registers are likely to be
different.
That can sometimes be mitigated by putting register offsets into the DT
property (something to consider here).  This is the problem with drivers
directly twiddling bits in  other h/w blocks and why we have common
interfaces for clocks, resets, etc.
Regarding ufs-exynos, it can have multiple instances (ufs_0/1/22). I'm also
preparing to support ufs_1 for exynosautov9 SoC but not yet finished due to
ufs phy control. Each instances has their own sysreg offset. To support
secondary ufs, I need to rework this patch and add the offset field as DT
propery.

+#define UFS_SHAREABILITY_OFFSET        0x710

For UFS1, this should be 0x714.
I leave it to you to decide how you want to do it.

BTW, If you want to see another way to handle the same problem, see
highbank_platform_notifier(). Notifiers aren't great either, but it keeps
some SoC specifics out of the driver.
I checked highbank_platform_notifier() implementation but I need to keep
this way to have further support multiple ufs instances and can be used for
exynos8/9 SoCs as well.
