IMHO it is; you can just compare to the manual rather than have offsets 
be screwed up if something is missing, out of order, or the wrong size. 
  That's countered by the typechecking and ease of use of structs, though.

It doesn't have to be all one or the other.  Use structs to describe 
individual blocks (provided they're not too sparsely populated), but 
define block addresses rather than huge structs consisting of sub-blocks 
and empty space.  And let the details be flexible at the 
author/maintainer's discretion, rather than a rigid rule.

Legacy stuff that hasn't been fully cleaned up.  There used to be immap 
structs for 83xx and 85xx back in arch/ppc IIRC.

The device tree, mainly.  But #defines can work for u-boot.
