Noted. I will place this node after cpu to make it consistent with
Agilex dts.

I use make DTC_FLAGS=-@ intel/socfpga_agilex5_socdk.dtb to check for the
warning but my thought was those are not related. Now I test again
without the firmware the changes and run the build command, I do see it
is clean without the changes.

I will fix this one and ensure the build is warning free.

Thanks.
