And it was the same for the GX family. AOBUS in the DT while there nothing about this in the memory map. Keep wrong patterns does not make them right.

We should have picked up on this a while ago, since gxbb at least, and we did not. There reason to create bus that don't exist in the memory map of any recent SoC. Creating bus should at least require a start and end offset explained somewhere.
