This is not a misc device. Find appropriate subsystem for it. It's not
EDAC, right?

Register values are usually not in the scope of bindings. We describe
here hardware, not programming model, although in case of soft cores
maybe it's a bit different.

Anyway you need to describe the actual feature, not OS behavior.

Depending on what is this, you should use appropriate generic node name.
