This RTC block is on a battery backed logic island and is accessed 
indirectly using the spru_bbl registers. The CRMU registers are required 
to read the power status and write to some authentication registers. 
Without writing to these authentication
registers, we cannot access any of the spru_bbl registers. In conclusion
I don't think the CRMU register accesses can be considered as another 
device access. Do you agree Arnd?

The labels are purely to improve readability of the device tree entry
