The datasheet shows an entire GMAC to end at 0x1000 from its base offset
which is likely what was used to construct this DTS, I do not believe
this is a functional change, and if we look at the register details, the
last register starts at 0xb44 so 0xc00 is giving a little bit of
headroom. In practice it does not change anything since you are still
going to need a full 4KB page frame to map the registers.

Yes, FA2 definitively start 0x18025c00, and ends 0x400 later, so I did
split this patch in three patches:

- one that fixes the FA2 base address, which can be queued to stable
kernel branches
- one that changes the AMAC register size
- one that adds the AMAC3

Such that the first patch can be queued for -stable fixes, whereas the
other two, not being functional changes are candidates for devicetree/next.

Result here:
