Thanks!

Note: please always include a commit body even if the title is enough
to understand the patch.

Antonio, could you try this and give us your Tested-by if it succeeds?

Thank you Sonic for the patch, and Alexander for your patience,
understanding and guidance.

This patch is working in my scenario. It is assigning the same base as
it was on the version before the patch that broke the behavior in the
past.

If you wish me to test in other scenarios (e.g. creating a device tree
file, or using platform data), I'd appreciate pointers to learn the
basics, or some help preparing the kernel tree to build with the
needed definitions (if that's what needs to be done).

I am saying this because seeing the commit logs it appears that effort
is being put into the driver to work in scenarios that differ from
mine, and I definitely do not want to break them.

Kind regards,

Patch applied for fixes with the ACK and Tested-by tags.

This was a very nice example of how bug reports should go: a clear and
detailed initial report, quick answer from involved parties, and the
fix applied, all in 5 days. Wish we could see more resolutions like
this - thanks to everyone involved.
