A side-note on that...
In addition to the listed commit, it was also determined that the old
two-node split is prohibited and the DT binding was updated to deprecate
it.
So in the event of us having to also access registers from e.g. the
remoteproc driver (which 8916 doesn't doesn't do), we would have to use:
compatible = "qcom,tcsr-mutex", "syscon";
