One minor difficulty: PCI has a limit on the number of BARs, but other busses don't. It'd be better as a "struct resource *". > Just like we have pci_request_regions(), we should also be able to > easily to a dev_request_regions(). the implementation should be very > close to pci_request_region() and pci_release_region(). Wouldn't it be nicer to have PCI use those dev_*() calls?

Another minor nit: addressing the various resource types. The platform bus code has multiple lookup schemes. Calls like resource_iomap() might be more flexible, so that lookup schemes can stay flexible. - Dave - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
