On platforms that mix dedicated IP block register space with
miscellaneous registers it is necessary to share register window between
syscon and dedicated IP block driver. Calling request_iomem_region()
implies exclusive ownership of the region, which, in the case above
could not happen.
This change also makes this driver's behaviour to that of its Linux
kernel counterpart.
