Hi Rob.

Indeed it's part of a larger range :
                 aobus: aobus at c8100000 {
                        compatible = "simple-bus";
                        reg = <0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;
                        #address-cells = <2>;
                        #size-cells = <2>;
                        ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;


While scrubbing on the uboot source, I found a sort of block of registers dedicated to communicate with
the secure firmware :

AO_SEC_JTAG_PWD1						0x184
AO_SEC_JTAG_PWD2						0x188
AO_SEC_JTAG_PWD3						0x18C

AO_SEC_SD_CFG13							0x234

AO_SEC_GP_CFG0							0x240
AO_SEC_GP_CFG1							0x244
AO_SEC_GP_CFG2							0x248
AO_SEC_GP_CFG3							0x24C
AO_SEC_GP_CFG4							0x250
AO_SEC_GP_CFG5							0x254
AO_SEC_GP_CFG6							0x258
AO_SEC_GP_CFG7							0x25C
AO_SEC_GP_CFG8							0x260
AO_SEC_GP_CFG9							0x264
AO_SEC_GP_CFG10							0x268
AO_SEC_GP_CFG11							0x26C
AO_SEC_GP_CFG12							0x270
AO_SEC_GP_CFG13							0x274
AO_SEC_GP_CFG14							0x278
AO_SEC_GP_CFG15							0x27C


As you see, the register we use here is AO_SEC_SD_CFG8...

Should I define all this block as simple-mfd and refer to it as a regmap ?

aobus: aobus at c8100000 {
	compatible = "simple-bus";
	reg = <0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;
	#address-cells = <2>;
	#size-cells = <2>;
	ranges = <0x0 0x0 0x0 0xc8100000 0x0 0x100000>;

	ao_secure: ao-secure at 140 {
		compatible = "amlogic,meson-gx-ao-secure", "simple-mfd";
		reg = <0x0 0x140 0x0 0x140>;
	};
};

chipid {
	compatible = "amlogic,meson-gx-socinfo";
	ao-secure = <&ao_secure>;
	chip-info-reg = <0xe0>;
};
