Hm, I wonder if we shouldn't use a 'ranges' property to describe this
address translation. Something like

	ebu@xxx {
		ranges = <0x17400000 0xe1400000 0x1000>,
			 <0x17c00000 0xe1c00000 0x1000>;
		reg = <0x17400000>, <0x17c00000>;
		reg-names = "cs-0", "cs-1";
	}

The translated address (0xE1X00000) will be available in res->start,
and the non-translated one (0x17X00000) can be retrieved with
of_get_address(). All you'd have to do then would be calculate the
mask:

	mask = (translated_address & original_address) >> 22;
	num_comp_bits = fls(mask);
	WARN_ON(mask != GENMASK(num_comp_bits - 1, 0));

Which allows you to properly set the ADDR_SEL() register without
relying on some hardcoded values:

	writel(original_address | EBU_ADDR_SEL_REGEN |
	       EBU_ADDR_COMP_BITS(num_comp_bits),
	       ebu_host->ebu + EBU_ADDR_SEL(csid));

That's quite important if we want to merge the xway NAND driver with
this one.
