'syscon' is just a hint. It doesn't define what any h/w is. IMO, we never should have added it. A compatible defines what the programming interface is for the node. This one should only ever appear more than once if you have multiple instances of the same block. So different registers, different compatible. What you have here is just completely broken. I don't think you even need a child node here. Just have PCIe node point to the parent with an offset arg. Rob
