Hello Kay,
I just noticed a problem with /proc/iomem on my ARM system
that I think was introduced by your patch:
commit 1d559e29138834bbcdf34ac072232bf543bfc4e0
Author: Kay Sievers <kay.sievers@xxxxxxxx>

arm: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(), dev_set_name()

On my ep93xx ARM system I have three pl010 uarts: "apb:uart1",
"apb:uart2", and "apb:uart3". For /proc/iomem I used to see:
/ # cat proc/iomem
...
808c0000-808c0fff : apb:uart1
808c0000-808c003f : uart-pl010
808d0000-808d0fff : apb:uart2
808d0000-808d003f : uart-pl010
808e0000-808e0fff : apb:uart3
808e0000-808e003f : uart-pl010
...
Now it shows up as:
/ # cat proc/iomem
...
808c0000-808c0fff : <BAD>
808c0000-808c003f : uart-pl010
808d0000-808d0fff : <BAD>
808d0000-808d003f : uart-pl010
808e0000-808e0fff : <BAD>
808e0000-808e003f : uart-pl010
...
Is this a regression or is there something else going on?
This was seen with kernel 2.6.30. I havn't looked at /proc/iomem for
a while so I'm not sure when this first started.
Regards,
Hartley
