I agree we should provide these info to the driver via the dts.

Do you agree to pass the register offsets, base address and base mask values
in the 'mediatek,pbus-csr' phandle array? Something like:

pcie0: pcie at 1fc00000 {
	...
	mediatek,pbus-csr = <&pbus_csr 0x0 0x20000000 0x4 0xfc000000>;
	...
}

where:
- reg offset for base address:	0x0
- base address value:		0x20000000
- reg offset for base mask:	0x4
- base mask value:		0xfc000000

Or do you prefer to just pass register offsets in mediatek,pbus-csr phandle
array and get base address values reading ranges property? Something like:

pcie0: pcie at 1fc00000 {
	...
	ranges = <0x02000000 0 0x20000000 0x0 0x20000000 0 0x4000000>;
	...
	mediatek,pbus-csr = <&pbus_csr 0x0 0x4>;
	...
}

Considering the latter, even if it is not a real problem for EN7581 since we
have just a single range, what if we have multiple ranges?

Lorenzo
