I just mean you should document what the two "reg" regions for this
device are meant to represent. "phb reg" isn't really verbose enough
;-)

Sure, but this is about correctness, not performance.

Great. Could you please fix the comment to just say this, then?

Okay, if it's identity mapped, you don't need any properties in the
device tree for it. Good :-)
