Since the PWMSS and its subdevices (eCAP and ePWM) use the same address
space then the range property should be empty. Update the documentation
to show the correct usage.

Why does it matter? An empty ranges is generally not preferred.

Someone pointed out that ranges should probably be empty. I
double checked it with what is in the ePAPR doc and based on
the definition it should be set to empty. I also checked
against the am33xx.dtsi and saw that both USB and ethernet
uses an empty value for ranges.

Can you elaborate on why this isn't preferable?

I'm going to drop this patch and the previous patch for now
that messes with the ranges property. I can resubmit them
separately later on if that is the route we decide to take.
