Yes this is the correct path:

/sys/devices/platform/rdb/rdb:memory_controllers/rdb:memory_controllers:memc@0/9902000.memc-ddr/

the 'rdb' node is our top level bus node, the 'rdb:memory_controllers' is an encapsulating node that groups all of the possible memory controllers in a system (there can be between 1 and 3), the rdb:memory_controllers@0 is the first of those memory controller and finally the 9902000.memc-ddr is the sub-node that contains the register controls of interest, since the memory controller aggregates different functions (arbitration, configuration, statistics, DDR PHY SHIM layer, etc.). Maybe I should provide a more complete binding while I am it.

Fair enough.
