I really don't like setting the physical address this way, can we
not do this via the device tree?
At a high level I think we should add something like the following in
the .dts:
s...@fff00000 {
fsl,sram-ctrl-handle = <&L2>;
reg = <0xfff00000 0xNNNN>;
compatible = "fsl,mpc85xx-l2-sram";
}
the NNNN can be the size the sram is configured as.
I don't see why this needs to go in the device tree, if it's the
kernel
that is setting it up. The kernel can pick any address and size it
wants.
It can, we just don't normally do physical address allocation in the
kernel. I just dont want it as a compile time thing. Either .dts or
make it runtime allocated by the kernel.
