The "reg" property needs to be removed since it is not used by the 
driver : the "memory-region" property (defined below) provides with all 
the needed memory information.

Unfortunately, when I remove this "reg" property from the DeviceTree, I 
have this warning when building (W=123) the DTB:

 Â"Warning (avoid_unnecessary_addr_size): /mlahb: unnecessary 
#address-cells/#size-cells without "ranges" or child "reg" property"

IMHO, there is something wrong in the dtc script which seems to ignore 
the "dma-ranges" property that needs to have #address-cells/#size-cells 
defined. Just like "ranges".

The quick patch below (add check for "dma-ranges" ) in 
scripts/dtc/checks.c solves this issue.

static void check_avoid_unnecessary_addr_size(struct check *c, struct 
dt_info *dti,
 ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂÂÂ struct node *node)
{
...
 ÂÂÂ if (get_property(node, "ranges") || get_property(node, 
"dma-ranges") || !node->children)
 ÂÂÂ ÂÂÂ return;
...

Can you confirm that I can remove the "reg" property and ignore the warning?
