Hi Rob,

Should be the same story. Here is the PR sent for review with Sound
Open Firmware (SOF):

https://github.com/thesofproject/linux/pull/3156

The only difference is that SOF uses:
syscon_regmap_lookup_by_compatible while remoteproc driver uses
syscon_regmap_lookup_by_phandle.

thanks,
Daniel.
