What do we call nvmem using ISA/PCI IO space? That was my first thought
seeing "IO". Probably unlikely, but still. "MMIO" instead?

As the accesses are memory-mapped, the child nodes should also have
memory-mapped addresses. IOW, you need 'ranges', '#address-cells',
'#size-cells'.

The first addition here will be access size restrictions. Perhaps add
that now (reg-io-width).
