This does not look like an appropriate use of simple-bus.

Why do you want the parent node to be a simple-bus?

Why must this be the case, given that the child node expects an absolute
physical address?

What's wrong with #address-cells = <2>, for example?

Why is this here _and_ in the child node(s)?

What is the difference between this node and its children?

Can there be more than one sub-node?
