I don't much like the "map-indirect" name. If it's actually unaligned
access, or non-word-sized access, that's forbidden, then that's what the
DT property should be.

The term "map-indirect" is more a description of how the software
currently behaves... which is exactly that DT bindings *shouldn't* be.
