 The value is a <prop-encoded-array>, composed of an arbitrary number of pairs of address and length, <address length>. The number of <u32> cells required to specify the address and length are bus-specific and are specified by the #address-cells and #size-cells properties in the parent of the device node. If the parent node specifies a value of 0 for #size-cells, the length field in the value of reg shall be omitted.

+The format of the value of the ranges property is an arbitrary number of triplets of (child-bus-address, parent-bus-address, length)
+  * The child-bus-address is a physical address within the child bus’ address space. The number of cells to represent the address is bus dependent and can be determined from the #address-cells of this node (the node in which the ranges property appears).
+  * The parent-bus-address is a physical address within the parent bus’ address space. The number of cells to represent the parent address is bus dependent and can be determined from the #address-cells property of the node that defines the parent’s address space.
+  * The length specifies the size of the range in the child’s address space. The number of cells to represent the size can be determined from the #size-cells of this node (the node in which the ranges property appears).
+If the property is defined with an <empty> value, it specifies that the parent and child address space is identical, and no address translation is required.
+If the property is not present in a bus node, it is assumed that no mapping exists between children of the node and the parent address space.
