Hi Bartosz,

The new devm_platform_ioremap_resource() helper has now been widely
adopted and used in many drivers. Users of nocache and write-combined
ioremap() variants could profit from the same code shrinkage. This
series provides two new versions of devm_platform_ioremap_resource()
and uses it in a few example drivers with the assumption that - just
like was the case previously - a coccinelle script will be developed
to ease the transition for others.
Please be aware that the number of ioremap() variants is being
reduced, as some of them are redundant (e.g. ioremap() already creates
an uncached mapping, so ioremap_nocache() is not needed).
So less is better than more ;-)
