On the contrary, after this refactor, all new platforms with the
v2.x.y TSENS IP should use two regions. The only reason for patch 2 is
that we're stuck with supporting old 8996/8916 DTs. I'd prefer to
phase out support for the old DTs if possible. I don't want to
encourage any new bindings with a single address space.

Fixed.

Fixed.

This feature was merged earlier. See commit 6d7c70d1cd6526 (thermal:
qcom: tsens: Allow number of sensors to come from DT)
