Why not to write this as

      if (spcr_uart_addr) {

Or even

      if (!spcr_uart_addr)
            return false;

and then the indentation level of the rest will be reduced.

I'd like to see a comment here that the devices in question are
assumed to have only one memory resource present which is why we only
look for the first one.
