I see no way to easily fix the NOR flash "reg" property for all non-4xx boards 
as well. But what I can do is, move the fdt_update_nor_flash_node() function 
into some common code (commond/fdt_support.c). This way it could be used by 
other boards/platforms as well.

Should I send an updated patch for this?

Cheers,
Stefan
