I was hoping that Ray or Scott could give this a try, and TBH, I am
still not a big fan of having to mangle the 'reg' property to be
compatible with #address-cells = <2> and #size-cells = <2>, I would have
preferred omitting the 'dma-ranges' property entirely.

We have plenty of time to get this patch applied for v5.11.
