But the base address is in the reg property, not in the compatible
property. What I mean is to have multiple nodes like

	clock-controller@113600000 {
		reg = <0 0x113600000 0 0x1000>;
		compatible = "samsung,exynos5433-cmu";
		#clock-cells = <1>;
	};

	clock-controller@114800000 {
		reg = <0 0x114800000 0 0x1000>;
		compatible = "samsung,exynos5433-cmu";
		#clock-cells = <1>;
	};

The code will just map the local registers for each instance and then
provide the clocks of the right instance when asked for it.

This is a different problem, this is a clock controller with multiple
sets of registers that are all different. In case of the cmu, it seems
that they are all the same, you just have multiple copies at different
locations, and they are connected to different devices.
