The change does seem too invasive. I can give it a try in next
version.
When a memory region is triggered, the impacted device will have
to convert the address with xscom_to_pcb_addr(). There is some
dependency on the chip model because the translation is different.
That would be an extra op in the xscom device model I guess.
Also, the main purpose of the XscomBus is to loop on the devices
to populate the device tree. I am wondering if we could just use
a simple list under the chip for that purpose.
Thanks,
