addr is not a pointer, it is an address in the sandbox virtual memory 
address space. This is why map_sysmem() is used below.

The suggested code fails to build on sandbox_defconfig with the driver 
enabled:

drivers/rtc/goldfish_rtc.c: In function ‘goldfish_rtc_probe’:
drivers/rtc/goldfish_rtc.c:89:24: warning: cast from pointer to integer 
of different size [-Wpointer-to-int-cast]
    89 |                 addr = (fdt_addr_t)plat->base;
       |

Please, use

	priv->base = plat->base;

If plat->base is NULL, please, throw -EINVAL.

Best regards
