Yes. But when we change legacy_init_iomem_resources(), then we should
also change efi_initialize_iomem_resources(). But that's declared in
<linux/efi.h> and so a change in ia64 code is required which I wanted
to avoid.
But that patch is for review of the idea. If nobody has objections,
then I'll implement the IA64 change anyway -- and then the 3rd
parameter can be added.
Thanks,
Bernhard
