What explanation? Consumers are trivial. Once you convert it to DT
schema there should be no such code at all.

Register offsets, a device programming model, are not part of bindings.
 Bindings should be independent of programming model, so only IDs are
allowed.

Why did you add register offsets to bindings at the first place?

Again, not programming model in the bindings. No bits, not register
values, no register offsets.
