Someone pointed out that ranges should probably be empty. I
double checked it with what is in the ePAPR doc and based on
the definition it should be set to empty. I also checked
against the am33xx.dtsi and saw that both USB and ethernet
uses an empty value for ranges.

Can you elaborate on why this isn't preferable?
