The STM IP is the only one to have the TI generic wrapper to be 
compliant with TI standards.
But in term of PRCM, there is only one IP, the DEBUGSS.
There are probably a bunch of internal clock management inside it that 
are not exposed to PRCM.

The confusing part is that in theory all these entries can be accessed 
by the same OCP port, and should potentially have this flags.
The point is that for the moment, we are mainly using that flag to get 
the SYSCONFIG.
We already discussed that, but I think we should modify this flag to 
highlight the SYSCONFIG / SYSSTATUS availability.
Maybe with something like ADDR_SYSCONFIG?

Any thought?

Regards,
Benoit
