Thanks for the update!

The second one is not needed, if you would add "ranges" for the
memory-mapped mode.

I would make the flash subnode mandatory.

This does not describe the hardware topology: the flash node should be
a subnode of the spibsc node, as it relies on the spibsc being clocked.

I think when using:

    spibsc: spi@1f800000 {
                compatible = "renesas,r7s9210-spibsc", "simple-pm-bus";
                reg = <0x1f800000 0x100>;
                clocks = <&cpg CPG_MOD 83>;
                power-domains = <&cpg>;
                interrupts = <GIC_SPI 445 IRQ_TYPE_LEVEL_HIGH>;
                #address-cells = <1>;
                #size-cells = <1>;
                ranges = <0 0x20000000 0x10000000>;

                flash@0 {
                        ...
                };
    };

and applying "[PATCH] mtd: maps: physmap: Add minimal Runtime PM
support"[1], the memory-mapped case should work, without your spibsc
driver.

Of course, you still need your driver for using the FLASH in SPI mode.
