Drop the reported-by here too please Hal.

I *think* if you do that, sparse will complain that you cast away the
__iomem. The complaint is something like "cast removes address space
qualifier from expression".

The other option is, rather than set the base as the drvdata, just pass
the whole priv struct. That's what I did for mpfs at least & I thought I
had suggested it on v3, but must not have.
It looks prettier than the casting madness at least ;)
