SubjectRe: [PATCH v2 01/13] mfd: pruss mfd driver.
Date
I am not sure if I understood you correctly, but the current sizeof the 
structure da8xx_prusscore_regs is 0x500.

Here is a link to the PRUSS memory map:
http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/PRUSS_Memory_Map

The offset 0x00007000 is the PRU0 reg offset and 0x00007800 is the PRU1 reg
offset.
We cannot have a register file larger than this, but lot of space is left
out, possibly for future development.
