Various other cleanups to simplify and improve code readability Pulled into next/drivers. I'm a little unsure about the first patch: the resource is called "shmem", which suggests that you are dealing with memory and should use "memremap()" instead of "ioremap()" and readl/writel. Can you clarify what the mapping attributes are supposed to be here? Thanks. Arnd

Since it's shared with remote processor it's prefer to have device ordering and uncached. drivers/misc/sram.c does have ioremap, the shmem used here is reserved region from SRAM. Let me know if this sounds fine.

Let me know if this sounds fine. Ok, for SRAM, uncached access and __iomem pointers are correct. Byte ordering tends to be a problem with this kind of data transfer, as you usually have a combination of fixed-order fields that require byte swaps and byte strings that must not be swapped. I'm fairly sure you got these all right here, so there is no problem with your patches, just something to remember for the future. Arnd

In case of SCPI and the new SCMI, it clearly specified.
