What about this one instead ? I want to cache it because that function
can be called quite a while and doing two additional property lookup
and string compares every time might hurt some platforms.

----

We have a historical hack that treats missing ranges properties as the
equivalent of an empty one. This is needed for ancient PowerMac "bad"
device-trees, and shouldn't be enabled for any other PowerPC platform,
otherwise we get some nasty layout of devices in sysfs or even
duplication when a set of otherwise identically named devices is
created multiple times under a different parent node with no ranges
property.

This fix is needed for the PowerNV i2c busses to be exposed properly
and will fix a number of other embedded cases.

Looks good to me.

How far back does this need to go? I assume I need to get this in for v3.18.

}
return 0;

So it gets compiled out for non powerpc.

I'd like some distro to pick it up in 3.16

Yeah, I'm set in my ways, keep forgetting about all the shiny new stuff.
