Yes, that core controller is controlled through registers accessed
with special-purpose instructions, not MMIO. Other controllers, like
megamodule and some as-yet unimplemented use MMIO.

Okay, I think I need a separate node for that reg property. The SoC
address space does actually start at 0. The registers in that reg
property are "SoC-level" registers holding silicon revision, pin
strap status, etc. All of the SoCs have a "device state config"
node which have registers like that. Instead of having them in the
device state block, this SoC has them in a separate area. I just
got lazy and put them the reg property in the soc node, but I think
it really calls for a separate node.
