Sounds like a bunch of kernel things and this is a binding.

dma-ranges is a bus property and doesn't go in device nodes (that
don't implement a bus like PCI host for example). This would not have
even worked a few kernel versions back because the kernel would only
start looking for dma-ranges in a parent node.

If this is always the region, then why does it need to be in DT? Just
set your dma_mask which drivers should be doing if they want anything
other than (2^32 - 1). dma-ranges sets the bus_dma_mask.
