And how does this mapping should cause the unit address to not match the
reg? What type of rule is it?

Except also incorrect address in pinctrl node.. but your DTS
nuvoton-common-npcm8xx.dtsi has so many other bugs (duplicated nodes,
not matching, unit addresses), that I don't wonder that you do not see
other errors. But that's not a reason to add more. Rob gave you quite
specific advice, so I really do not understand why do you keep arguing
with it?

DTS, not binding.

BTW, your patches have errors. Please fix them:
patch:226: new blank line at EOF.
warning: 1 line adds whitespace errors.
