Thank you.

Compared with correct message:

00100000-3e4befff : System RAM
  01000000-017b1ab3 : Kernel code
  017b1ab4-01d4ce7f : Kernel data
  01ec4000-02008fff : Kernel bss
3e4bf000-3e8befff : reserved
3e8bf000-3ebbefff : ACPI Non-volatile Storage
3ebqbf000-3ebfefff : ACPI Tables
3ebff000-3ebfffff : System RAM
3ec00000-7effffff : reserved
  51413120-51413127 : SB800 TCO         <- here
7f000000-f7ffffff : PCI Bus 0000:00

SB800 TCO area is reserved. Then it doesn't find MMIO address from
SBResource_MMIO register...

Thanks,
Rui
