I'm not sure I get your point. Did you mean that we could have a parent
(which represents clock and its compatible is something like
"*-audsys","syscon","simple-mfd") with a subnode for audio function?

If so, there's no special reason. I just think it more specifically to
let people know we have an MFD (top node) and it has two sub-functions
(children) share the same region.

Oh okay, I didn't read the mail well. We have four or five registers
for the clocks, but one of them (offset:0x634) is mixed up with the
audio function (bit 17-19), so I omit it.
