If you require the binding to specify the memory area, then you at least allow
for future work to move to a dynamic mapping without updating the binding and
all device trees. So, please do that even if the code is hardcoded to the
static address today.
For extra credit, make sure that the reg property is matching the static mapping
when you setup your firmware interface on your platform.

It would be nice to get a memory map for the SMC area in documentation
somewhere, but that can be done separately later.
