Given that fact that I will break up the resource. Let's just use the
resource for the MUX to handle this. For the IP that doesn't existed,
I will just not list it.

Let me do this:
1. One resource for the RAM shutdown
2. One resource for the host controller
3. One optional resource for the MUX if needed.
With #3, this also solved the MUX detection and avoid having another
node "apm,ahci-mux".

okay.

I will read and follow later. We do have non-64-bit devices such as
SDIO and SPI. But these IP's have translation in the bus similar to
PCIe PIM.
