In which case we would want to mandate the use of a "reg-names"
property, because there could be other kinds of controllers, such as the
one found on BCM7xxx where we have the 3 "reg" units, the first one is
the MSPI controller register range, while the two others are used for
the Boot SPI portion of the controller to accelerate flash reads, so
completely unrelated here.

Right now, using your driver on this Device Tree/configuration makes
bcm_mspi request the second register range and mistakenly assuming this
is the extended interrupt control register.

You could argue that the BSPI portion should be a separate node, but
even so, better be safe than sorry.
