OK. My intention was to retrieve the  virtual address for the
statically mapped  devices.
I can drop it and use existing macros to pass the virtual address.

That is the bitmask for the interrupts populated on each vic.

No . Thats a mistake . Timer has only one irq line. Will modify.

SROM is the controller for NOR Flash,SRAM,PROM memory. The physical-virtual
address mapping  are statically setup by the kernel during initial
bootup. This is done
in the devicemaps_init() called from paging_init().

The device tree is flattened later in the bootup sequence. So it is
not possible to retrieve
properties for statically mapped devices from the device tree.
