Sounds reasonable to me. Another option would be to introduce a mvebu specific
property but that would be the least preferred option I guess.

But the fact that "assigned-addresses" property is described as "MMIO registers"
also adds up to the justification IMO.

Rob/Krzysztof could always correct that during binding review.

Are you also converting the binding to YAML for validation?
