NP, the motivation for doing this properly is to support cases where
p_addr_cells/addr_cells/size_cells is != 1, and to support cases where
the parent bus address is not the CPU address. The proposed bindings
for mbus will exercise both of these conditions..

I wonder if of_get_parent / of_node_put is technically needed here?

Why the check for base == 0?

Everything basically looks right. I definitely forgot the include the
p_addr in my quick sample.
