Oh, ugh...  I didn't realize that this wasn't merged.  I don't have a
way to test this any more.  The simplest fix would be to do change the
0x3000 to 0x100.  The GPR63 register is at 0xFC.

		reg = <0x4007c000 0x100>;

That's probably the best fix as well.  The later register areas would
be their own syscons.
