Device tree support in bcma is only needed on some SoC, when this is
used on a PCIe card it is not needed.

I would just deactivate the parts that are using device tree in bcma
when it is not available. I will send a patch after having something to eat.

Is there a better method which is compatible with SPARC than using
of_translate_address() to get the reg address and also take the ranges
attribute of the bus into account?
