Hi Rob,

This patch will break IMX RPROC support.

devm_ioremap_resource_wc works only for IORESOURCE_MEM resources:

lib/devres.c:124
static void __iomem *
__devm_ioremap_resource(struct device *dev, const struct resource *res,

»       if (!res || resource_type(res) != IORESOURCE_MEM) {
»       »       ret = dev_err_probe(dev, -EINVAL, "invalid resource
%pR\n", res);
»       »       return IOMEM_ERR_PTR(ret);
»       }

while the devm_ioremap_wc doesn't care about this.

So we cannot use devm_ioremap_resource_wc here unless you add
IORESOURCE_MEM flags
to  of_reserved_mem_region_to_resource as discussed here:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2025/4/28/759

The same issue we are already experiencing with Sound Open Firmware
where the change was already merged
and we have a bug already reported.

How should we fix this:

1) Add  res->flags = IORESOURCE_MEM; in  of_reserved_mem_region_to_resource

OR

2) Use devm_ioremap_wc instead of devm_ioremap_resource_wc.

thanks,
Daniel.
