> 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.

The path should be much more specific so include at least:
rdb/rdb:memory_controllers/rdb:memory_controllers:memc@*/
(or some variations of it if pieces of name change)

However looking at the driver, this is regular platform driver, thus  it
will appear as:
/sys/bus/platform/9902000.memc-ddr
