That sounds a little odd; why not just use a phandle consistently
everywhere?

Either way though, I could imagine still putting all the lookup code
into the syscon driver; just have different functions for the different
lookup methods:

imx_syscon_lookup_by_phandle(np, char *property_name)
imx_syscon_lookup_by_compatible(char *compatible
imx_syscon_lookup_by_path(char *node_path)
