The second reg in some of the PDC enabled SoCs' went in since it may 
have slipped throgh code reviews when using downstream
patch as is on upstream.
Also the bindings document for PDC is still in txt, so yaml check could 
not catch the extra register which is not documented.

An attempt to add support for spi_configure_type [1] & [2] had 
suggestion either to access second reg via mailbox or
add another level of irqchip hierarchy between PDC to GIC to configure 
SPI type. Unless both [1] and [2] patch can go in as
PDC irqchip driver won't gain support to use it. (using mailbox approch 
will have mailbox driver to access this register and PDC node may 
mention which mailbox to use).
