I don't think reg or interrupts will be removed, so the properties
added by Tony look pretty safe?. I guess if we ever have a driver
it would need some more properties and would bail out. Having no
DT data is does not load at all, the result is the same. OTOH having
the node means the kernel can properly send the module to idle.

I think this patchset should Cc Rob and Mark.
