Sorry, this is just not proper DT design. The whole node should have a
reg property, and it should contain two (or three if we're handling the
L3 clk domain?) different offsets for the different power clusters. The
problem seems to still be that we don't have a way to map the CPUs to
the clk domains they're in provided by this hardware block. Making
subnodes is not the solution.
