Well, the assumption in the original dt-bindings was that every reg
variable is 4 * u32 wide (as most new qcom SoCs set #address- and
#size-cells to <2>). However, that is not the case for all of the
SoCs.

So, ideally we shouldn't set the "#address-cells" and "#size-cells":
as const: 2 in the bindings.

See as an example:

Thanks.
