I believe Arnd's point was that you need _a_ ranges property, rather
than specifically requiring an idmap/empty ranges property.

As Marc pointed out, you can use of_iomap on the child nodes to map the
portions described by the reg properties, which will handle any
ranges-based translation automatically.

When you put together the binding document, please point out that the
ranges property is necessary.

Thanks,
Mark.
