The Host Base System Control registers are not specific to the External System processors. They are various registers with different purposes.

Only 4 registers matter for the remoteproc feature:

    - The External system 0 reset control and status registers: EXT_SYS0_RST_CTRL, EXT_SYS0_RST_ST
    - Same for the the External system 1: EXT_SYS1_RST_CTRL, EXT_SYS1_RST_ST

So, mapping the whole Host Base System Control area doesn't make sense for the remoteproc feature
and exposes registers that are not related to the External Systems to the driver.

By the way, the latest document we are referring to is [1].
