Instead of using the open-coded "reg" property lookup and address
translation in mpic_alloc(), directly call of_address_to_resource().
This includes various workarounds for special cases which the naive
of_address_translate() does not.

Afterwards it is possible to remove the copiously copy-pasted calls =

What about cleaning up:

Seems like we should be able to remove the 'phys_addr' argument =

altogether.

=20
Well, ideally the MPIC code would just be a OF platform_driver with a
bit of supplementary platform_data to deal with device-tree flaws.
Unfortunately it's quite a long way from that.
=20
Some platforms seem to prefer to use a "platform-open-pic" property on
the root node instead of setting up the "reg" node of the open-pic
itself.
=20
Furthermore, the ISU configuration seems to be board-specific.  =

pSeries

seems to have all of the ISUs configured as additional cells in the
"platform-open-pic" property, but almost all of the rest are just
hard-coded offsets from the PIC address in the board-support code.
=20
If it was possible to fix the device-trees on the systems with =

hardcoded

offsets then we could put the ISU addresses into the =

"platform-open-pic"

property and test that in mpic_alloc().
=20
Otherwise there's still going to be a fair amount of hardcoding for
specific boards.
=20
Regardless, I think this patch series is a good first cut and cleaning
up some of the more egregious code duplication there.

Agreed its a good first pass cleanup but it doesn't seem like we're that =
far off from remove the 'phys_addr' being passed in.
