What people have done for these things is have a device for the
controller that maps the registers and then have the other devices talk
through that to get the access they need.  You still need to specify
which interrupts but it's simpler with the I/O mapping and is needed for
arbitration if the hardware has register bits for multiple functions in
the same register.

Not thought enough about the patch itself yet, that's more a separate
thing.
