Yes, that would be helpful, though I would appreciate a better description
that explains what is actually going on: is it the device or the bus that
has the 32-bit limitation, and if it is indeed a bug in the device, why do
you pretend that this is a 64-bit device on a 32-bit bus instead (this
could also use a comment in the dts file)?
