Why is it invalid? It's preferred to have 'reg' in MFDs even if Linux
doesn't use them. If there's a chunk of registers you can define, then
do so. If it's all register bit soup, then fine, omit it.

I still don't understand why this particular MFD subnode needs a reg and not
the other ones, using reg would need adding #address-cells/#size-cells on top
node and change all examples/DT for nothing.

Like the other meson-gx-hhi-sysctrl subnodes, it's a register bit soup and this
one is no exception.
