As I stated above qspi_base and qspi_mmap region are tightly bound,
there is no way to use qspi_mmap region w/o accessing qspi_base. So I am
planning to keep them as it is. I will move qspi_ctrlmod to use syscon.
Something like:

qspi: qspi at 4b300000 {
       compatible = "ti,dra7xxx-qspi";
       reg = <0x4b300000 0x100>,
             <0x5c000000 0x4000000>,
       reg-names = "qspi_base", "qspi_mmap";
       syscon-chipselects = <&scm_conf 0x558>;
       #address-cells = <1>;
       #size-cells = <0>;
       spi-max-frequency = <48000000>;
       ti,hwmods = "qspi";
};

Do you think this is not viable in future?
