[PATCH v3] mailbox: test: really ignore optional memory resources

From: Wolfram Sang

Date: Tue Mar 03 2026 - 16:28:01 EST


Memory resources are optional but if the resource is empty
devm_platform_get_and_ioremap_resource() prints an error nonetheless.
Refactor the code to check the resources locally first and process them
only if they are present. The -EBUSY error message of ioremap_resource()
is still kept because it is correct. The comment which explains that a
plain ioremap() is tried as a workaround is turned into a info message.
So, a user will be informed about it, too.
