This property is required since DT was invented, again, I should not be
in charge of adding it.

I am of two minds about this. That processor does not have an MPIDR
equivalent so in theory #address-cells and #size-cells could be omitted
because the reg property is meaningless. I do not know to be honest the
best way to handle this.
