Well, there's 64 bits of data, but it doesn't mean that it's one 64-bit
integer.

Different device tree bus types can -- though in this case it translates
to an ordinary CPU address using the standand ranges property.

I suppose the interpretation was that the register block starts at
0xa80, and the first register within that block is at 0xa82 -- though
the manual seems to actually lump those two reserved bytes in with the
previous section.
