Will adding any of these things need unit addresses and colide with the 
existing nodes below? IOW, at one level there's only 1 number space.

_add_byte_region() would be more clear.

I believe of_node_to_nid will do the right thing for !CONFIG_NUMA and 
this can be dropped.

You've already matched the node once with of_match_node, don't do it 
again.

Why not make the regions platform devices too? Then you don't need your 
own populate code.

This makes no sense. I assume you plan to add some other region type 
later?
