I agree with this 100%, but that means that we need to be able to
inject address-cells/size-cells properties at some point, otherwise
we'll never be able to store 64-bit addresses.  And that's what
Sameer's patch does.  It injects those properties at the appropriate
time.  Any code that parses 'reg' properties without taking the
address-cells/size-cells properties into account is technically
incorrect and should be fixed..
