How is this a pci device? You just described syscon, so this goes to soc.
All other comments apply as well.

Node names should be generic. See also an explanation and list of
examples (not exhaustive) in DT specification:
https://devicetree-specification.readthedocs.io/en/latest/chapter2-devicetree-basics.html#generic-names-recommendation
Look how syscons are called in other vendors.
