For Tegra132 and later chips, we can now use the correct hardware base
address for the Tegra AHB IP block in the DT data.  Update the DT binding
documentation to reflect this change.

A table-based approach rather than prose might make this more legible?

- compatible: Must contain the following:
  Tegra20:  "nvidia,tegra20-ahb"
  Tegra30:  "nvidia,tegra30-ahb"
  Tegra114: "nvidia,tegra114-ahb", "nvidia,tegra30-ahb"
  Tegra124: "nvidia,tegra124-ahb", "nvidia,tegra30-ahb"
  Tegra132: "nvidia,tegra132-ahb"
  Tegra210: "nvidia,tegra210-ahb", "nvidia,tegra132-ahb"

With any luck, we can extend that final item for future chips to be:

  Tegra210, TegraNNN:
            "nvidia,tegra<chip>-ahb", "nvidia,tegra132-ahb"

Perhaps we format the 114/124 entry that way too.


As a historical note, I thought this issue might have been caused by the HW lumping together a bunch of vaguely related features into the same address window, with offset 0 being unrelated to AHB. This is certainly the explanation for some other interesting reg value in DT on other HW modules in Tegra. However as best I can tell that isn't the case for this HW module; we just mapped the start of the reg value to the first defined register for some reason rather than aligning it with the entry in the address map. So, this series makes sense to me.

The series,

(it'd be nice if the DT doc was modified as I described above, but not strictly necessary. I like Russell's ideas how to make this more transparent/automatic so old DTs can be converted too).
