They are not the same register mapping but similar.
Compatible "amlogic,meson6-ir" only works with legacy IR, other
compatibles work with MF-IR.

In raw decoder mode, it's not necessarily to switch to MF-IR, you could
use "amlogic,meson6-ir" with legacy IR register area.
This patch is for fix the wrong relation between compatible and register
area. If compatible is "amlogic,meson-gxbb-ir", the register should be
from MF-IR.

Legacy IR and MF-IR share the same IRQ number, so I recommend that chose
one to use. Do they both need to be added?
In a word, this patch is not for new function, just fix the wrong
register addr.
