I see. Another option would be to point directly to the registers you need:
ocotp-cfg0 = <&ocotp 0x10>; ocotp-cfg1 = <&ocotp 0x20>; rom-revision = <&rom 0x80>;
We don't yet have an abstraction to access a register from a syscon reference like this, but you could either roll your own here, or add a generic abstraction.

It can be both at the same time now.
