As the name suggests, this old fix-layout is deprecated, you
should look at using the newer NVMEM layouts style for this node.

You mention in the commit message, there are a couple efuse regions
in the AM62P SoC, so does this apply generally to all of them, or
should you have this be specific to the "gp-sw" efuse region you
are describing here?

The efuse region at 0x43000230 is 96bits, so this should be 0xc not 0x4 size.
