No I don't. TBH, I didn't foresee this change either; you never know
what the hardware people have on their mind for the next SoC ;-)

I did consider that option.  However, doing so would imply that (a) the
code to map the memory regions can no longer be a loop, but has to be
unrolled manually, and (b) rcar_dmac_of_data.chan_reg_block can no
longer be used to index iomem[], but needs a conditional expression or
statement.

    - * @iomem: remapped I/O memory base
    + * @common_base: remapped common or combined I/O memory base
    + * @channel_base: remapped optional channel I/O memory base

    -     void __iomem *iomem;
    +     void __iomem *common_base;
    +     void __iomem *channel_base;

If you still think this is worthwhile, I can make these changes.
Thanks!
