Both my examples were using sibling nodes in the OF tree.

pex@e0000000 {
device_type = "pci";
ranges = <0x02000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0xe0000000 0x0 0x8000000>;
bus-range = <0x0 0xFF>;
chip@0 {
ranges = <0x02000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x02000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x0 0x8000000>;
chip_control@0 {
compatible = "orc,chip,control";
assigned-addresses = <0x02000000 0x0 0x0 0x0 4096>;
};

gpio3: chip_gpio@8 {
#gpio-cells = <2>;
compatible = "linux,basic-mmio-gpio";
gpio-controller;
reg-names = "dat", "set", "dirin";
assigned-addresses = <0x02000000 0x0 0x8 0x0 4>,
<0x02000000 0x0 0xc 0x0 4>,
<0x02000000 0x0 0x10 0x0 4>;
};

Non-conformant yes, but it is the simplest way to get linux to bind
two drivers to the same memory space.
