I don't like this change. It introduces further indirection where it's
not really necessary, and it's also using platform data to specify this
which is in the opposite direction to what's required for moving towards
DT.

It'd be much better to copy the offsets themselves in drv_data. You're
only talking about 7 bytes here, so there's no worry about bloating the
drv_data structure.

I'd suggest making the default register offsets be the drivers existing
offsets, and allowing it to be overriden. That nicely sorts out the
next comment below, and also gets rid of it in platform data. Moreover,
if you're going to re-use this driver, you should do it via a different
"compatible" name in DT, which the driver can then use to identify the
different register set layout.

No, this means every file which includes this header ends up defining
this structure, which is globally visiable, and therefore its a recipe
for link failures.
