OK, we could avoid the condition but I'll add a comment that those
clocks exist from v3 onwards.

I personally don't like the version suffix on defines. Also seems this
is not used in the code, so I'll drop it for now.

I'd like to keep the name of the define version agnostic.

yep, that was the purpose of the macro, i.e. to swap the fields
depending on the version.

With above macros I wanted to avoid that. We already have few structures
with 3x prefix and I want to stop that growing.

It is a matter of taste in the end of the day.

yes, they are here for completeness ;)

Those registers are used in donwstream driver for debug purpose. In case
iommu fault is triggered dumping these registers could give us a clue
what goes wrong.

For example the first register in the list is a BASE address for core0.
Next _COREX_ are offsets from the base.

Looks these registers are not used in this patchset I'll drop them for now.

That couldn't happen because the structure fields are not only reordered
but also renamed.

1xx and 3xx vs. 4xx

hold_count count_min
count_min count_min_host
count_actual count_actual
