This region of memory is part of the "grf" "syscon" device (according to
arch/arm/boot/dts/rk3288.dtsi) so the register should be accessed from
that driver. It looks as if no such driver currently exists, but given
the existence of the device tree node it's fair to assume that one will
eventually be merged.
