For a mbigen hardware module which connecte with several devices,
because these devices has different device ID,
I need to define a device node for each device in DTS file.

	mbigen
	|
------------------
| 	| 	|
dev1 	dev2 	dev3

Because of register layout,the registers related with these devices
are put together, I can't split them clearly.
So, I only make these devices which connect with
same mbigen hardware module usethe same address.

The problem is caused by memory region check fail because of duplicated address in devm_ioremap_resource().
For mbigen special case, there is no necessary to do this check.
