 Optional properties:

    will be Big Endian (default case).
+ - fsl,ippdexpcr1-alt-addr : The property is related to a hardware issue
+   on SoC LS1021A and only needed on SoC LS1021A.
+   Must include 2 entries:
+   The first entry must be a link to the SCFG device node.
+   The 2nd entry must be offset of register IPPDEXPCR1 in SCFG.
You don't need a DT change for this. You can find SCFG node by its compatible
string and then the offset should be known given this issue is only on 1 SoC.
Did you mean that RCPM driver just to access IPPDEXPCR1 shadowed register in SCFG
directly without fetching it's offset info. from DT?
Yes. There's only 1 possible value of the offset because there's only
one SoC, so the driver can hardcode the offset. And I assume there's
only one SCFG node, so you can find it by its compatible string
(of_find_compatible_node).
