I think what Kishon is asking, is why this 0x200 offset isn't already on
reg. so that instead of, e.g.:

	reg = <0x40000000 0x1000>;

you would have:

	reg = <0x40000200 0x1000>;

then everybody's happy. It's unfortunate, however, that we already
shipped DT sources with the bogus (?) reg property and now we have to
support that broken binding. My suggestion would be to add a new
compatible which comes with proper reg property and still add that weird
phy_base for the old compatible, so that:

	if (of_device_is_compatible(node, "marvell,berlin2q-sata-phy"))
		phy->phy_base = PHY_BASE;

then, if new compatible comes with proper 'reg', phy->phy_base would be
zero and everything should still work. How does this sound ?
