Looks like only the device BAR6 is not assigned form OF?

Any progress on this? Do you need any more information from me?

Should be one warning about this device in that system.

We don't need to do anything about it if the device is working with
this patch set.

Hi Yinghai,

Picking this up again after thanksgiving.......

The device does work with this patch. Doesn't this warning mean BAR6 resources could not be reserved which means the device driver may not be able to get the BAR6 resource at some point if another device grabs the unreserved resource?

David M had pointed out an issue with how OF driver uses the same address range for all ROMs enabling them only one at a time. That seems to be in play here in the issue I am seeing. Does this patch series need to address this?

Thanks,
Khalid
