7Required properties:
8- compatible : should be "ibm,vas".
9- ibm,vas-id : A unique identifier for each instance of VAS in the system
10- reg : Should contain 4 pairs of 64-bit fields specifying the Hypervisor
11 window context start and length, OS/User window context start and length,
12 "Paste address" start and length, "Paste window id" start bit and number
13 of bits)

17 vas@6019100000000 {
18 compatible = "ibm,vas", "ibm,power9-vas";
