Thanks for the review. We can add a patch in this patchset to fix this issue.

This isn't right. A device shouldn't be poking around
in the 'parent' or 'parentobj' member of its struct --
that is a QOM internal. If you want "this device, cast
to a SysBusDevice", the way to write that is:
   SysBusDevice *sbd = SYS_BUS_DEVICE(s);

(or you could pass 'obj'; same thing).

Looking at the code currently in the tree it also is making this
same mistake:

$ git grep -- '->parent' hw/*/npcm*
hw/arm/npcm7xx_boards.c:    MachineClass *mc = &nmc->parent;
hw/mem/npcm7xx_mc.c:    sysbus_init_mmio(&s->parent, &s->mmio);
hw/misc/npcm7xx_clk.c:    sysbus_init_mmio(&s->parent, &s->iomem);
hw/misc/npcm7xx_gcr.c:    sysbus_init_mmio(&s->parent, &s->iomem);
hw/misc/npcm7xx_rng.c:    sysbus_init_mmio(&s->parent, &s->iomem);
hw/nvram/npcm7xx_otp.c:    SysBusDevice *sbd = &s->parent;
hw/ssi/npcm7xx_fiu.c:    SysBusDevice *sbd = &s->parent;
hw/timer/npcm7xx_timer.c:    SysBusDevice *sbd = &s->parent;

These all should be using QOM cast macros. Would somebody
who's working on these devices like to send a patch ?

thanks
