I would rather see a more specific compatible string here that describes
the actual name, e.g.

	compatible = "fsl,ls2085a-rstcr", "syscon";

this way we have the option of making it a real driver later on by matching
on the specific string, but using the fallback syscon string otherwise.

BTW, please change the address to lowercase letters in both the node name and
the reg property. I would also change the name to 'syscon' instead of 'rstcr',
making that

	rstcr: syscon@1e60000 {
		...
	};

	Arnd
