My understanding is that the "reg" property is required for the NoCs that have
registers for controlling the QoS settings for the ports from Linux side.
Other NoCs might be controlled by some remote processor and direct access from
Linux may not be possible, so they do not have unit address and are outside of
the soc DT node.
Do we need to strictly define when exactly the "reg" property is required,
can't we just mark it as optional?

Thanks,
Georgi
