If you want to go for 101%: you could get rid of this block
altogether by doing: 
	dev->emacp = of_iomap(np, 0);

Note1:
This will also make the rsrc_regs variable in the emac_instance
struct redundant. So simply remove it from the core.h.

Note2: if you want to go for 110%, you could replace this with
platform_get_resource() and devm_ioremap_resource() (if you
are interested, take a look at devm_ioremap_resource's kdoc
it has an example).

Thanks,
