Shrug, both is fine for me. I just used this because the qcom remoteproc
usages of of_address_to_resource() that I also patched already seemed to
log it similar to this.

If someone wants me to resend this with start, start+size-1 as suggested
by Konrad (or something else) then just let me know. :)
