I assume you are referring to the previous patch? The node names are not
the same, hence the previous patch is adding another node for the system
controller, and this patch removes the old one with the "syscon" compatible.

We already patched the EMAC driver to support the new SRAM controller based
regmap, so other than making people unhappy about having to update their
DT, I don't think there would be any problems. This also means H3 in -next
currently has _two_ syscon nodes.
