And? There are multiple ranges, and you randomly took the first one for
the unit address of the soc node?

You realize that the ranges property is a list of ranges, and they
could be in any order? Why would you pick the base address of one of
the ranges rather than any of the others?

I believe there is simply no unit address for the soc {} node. There is
definitely one for the internal-regs {} node, but not for the soc {}
node.

Best regards,
