Okay, will fix this.

This node doesn't have sub-nodes.
So one is the parent syscon node which has the entire system control
region and then sub-nodes for each of the modules. In this case the PCIe
in system control has only one 4 byte register that has to be configured.
Both the parent node and sub-node are syscon, so given the same
compatible for both.

For the PCIe case, it only has a 4 byte register to be configured. The
other option would be to get phandle to the parent syscon node and then
hard-code the offset in the driver.
