Mmm... again I got lost here. Which 'ranges' you say I don't specify to
access the (formerly) 0xffff0001?

AFAIK, 'ranges' are only for children translation, which means I don't
need to specify a ranges for that in the devbus node, but in its parent,
right?

This ranges thing can be very tricky, so please correct me if I'm
mistaken.
