Only if something used it.

Okay.

I think you are misreading 'ranges: true'. That just means the property 
can be present, not that it's type is boolean.

We should probably have some sort of 'address to regmap offset' helper 
that works no matter what ranges has.

In most cases, while I require 'reg', unless the child nodes use a mixed 
up set of registers, Linux doesn't currently use 'reg'. You can also 
just hardcode the offsets in your driver.

Good enough for me.
