Well where are they on the SoC? Each driver should only access registers
that belong to the driver module.

If the ti,scc-ram-offset and ti,hecc-ram-offset are not within the ECC
driver module, probably you should use a separate driver for them
such as drivers/misc/sram.c.

Also, sounds like the ti,mbx-offset should just be using the mailbox
framework like remoteproc is doing with include/linux/omap-mailbox.h?
