I just need to come up with a better > justification than "because it's needed". What do you mean "driver fails to load"? You control the driver, don't you? You wrote it? If you write a driver which is not compatible with bindings, it won't work obviously, so after changing bindings you need to revisit the driver. There is no need for syscon because driver "fails to load". You need to fix your driver. Currently the driver code is definitely not a proper platform driver. Different question is whether something else requires here syscon because it accesses these registers but this requires knowledge of architecture and other components. Best regards, Krzysztof
