I think it makes sense at least for the FSL SoCs, in that from an 
addressing perspective it is like a bus -- the entire block of devices 
can be relocated by writing to one IMMRBAR register, and the only 
hardcoded address is the offset into that block.

Putting the devices at the root level would make it harder to implement 
a template dts fragment for a given SoC that can be included in a board 
dts, where different boards may want to put the IMMR in different 
places.  It could be done with macros and addition, but it'd be simpler 
to be able to just update reg and ranges in the soc node.
