Use 'reg'. Looks like you need 2 entries for it.

Whether a driver of some OS decides to use it or not is irrelevant to 
the binding.

0 is already the minimum.

Humm, normally we don't want the same address in multiple 'reg' entries. 
Is this offset known to vary? It could just be hardcoded in the driver 
or implicit from the compatible (different compatible is the usual way 
to deal with differing register layouts).
