Well I would not say it was wrong but more incomplete :)

I am not against adding a new compatible string for CP110 but ot be
honest the new binding for CP110 does not bring anything as you don't
use at all the LSB register.
Actually, if on Armada 375 we initially mapped the LSB register it was
to support an very early release of the SoC (stepping Z) and only for
resetting its value. So I guess you started to write the AP860 part
based on the Armada 375 and then found that we could map a more complete
range of the registers.

So yes please do it, thanks to this you won't have to add the
control_msb_offset member and can use a clean function. Moreover if in
the future we see some usefulness for this LSB register then we could use
the new compatible for the Armada 38x.
Thanks,
Gregory
