DMU sounds like some sort of block, not just a bus.

Those 2 compatibles alone are not valid. And 'simple-mfd' implies child
nodes.

Without any knowledge of what else is in the DMU, I can't give any
advice as to what this should look like instead.

No need for this. Make it a child of cru node.

There's not a contiguous range of phy registers? If there are, keep
'reg' even if Linux doesn't (currently) use it.
