This reverts commit 2ae80900f239484069569380e1fc4340fd6e0089.

My rework was unneeded & wrong. It replaced a clear & correct "reg"
property usage with a custom "offset" one.

Back then I didn't understand how to properly handle CRU block binding.
I heard / read about syscon and tried to use it in a totally invalid
way. That change also missed Rob's review (obviously).

Northstar's pin controller is a simple consistent hardware block that
can be cleanly mapped using a 0x24 long reg space.

Since the rework commit there wasn't any follow up modifying in-kernel
DTS files to use the new binding. Broadcom also isn't known to use that
bugged binding. There is close to zero chance this revert may actually
cause problems / regressions.

This commit is a simple revert. Example binding may (should) be updated
/ cleaned up but that can be handled separately.

My bot found errors running 'make DT_CHECKER_FLAGS=-m dt_binding_check'
on your patch (DT_CHECKER_FLAGS is new in v5.13):

yamllint warnings/errors:

dtschema/dtc warnings/errors:
/builds/robherring/linux-dt-review/Documentation/devicetree/bindings/pinctrl/brcm,ns-pinmux.example.dt.yaml: cru@1800c100: $nodename:0: 'cru@1800c100' does not match '^([a-z][a-z0-9\\-]+-bus|bus|soc|axi|ahb|apb)(@[0-9a-f]+)?$'
	From schema: /usr/local/lib/python3.8/dist-packages/dtschema/schemas/simple-bus.yaml

It's warning we already have and not something introduced by this
revert.

We don't allow warnings, so you're saying this one was warning before?

Yes.


As a revert this commit should introduce as little non-revert changes
as possible. I'm planning to improve that example later in a separated
commit.

You have to fix the warning as part of this series.

OK


Can you take a look at this commit despite your bot warning, please?

If 'CRU' is a hardware block, then I don't think most of the revert is
right to use 'simple-bus'.

If you want to just replace 'offset' with 'reg', then I'd be happy to
see that. I've been pushing child nodes of syscons in that direction.

Well, it's a revert, not a fix, it goes from totally wrong to semi-wrong
;) Let me send V3.
