You have an off-by-1 in the resource size. ioremap and struct resource
are not equal in their expectations. You probably want to do something
like:

	info->mem[0].size = regs->end - regs->start + 1;
	info->mem[0].internal_addr = ioremap(regs->start, info->mem[0].size);
	...

and make sure that your resource end doesn't overlap with a start address
of an unrelated resource in your definition. /proc/iomem tends to be
useful for this.
