Many thanks for your response and your help here. I guess that as conclusion with respect to the current v9 patchset we can disregard the idea of MFD and modify the current v9 so that it doesn't touch directly ACPI resources. Instead as I proposed before we can have the scan handler to enumerate the children devices and translate its addresses filling dev->resources[] and at the same time we can modify acpi_default_enumeration to check acpi_device_enumerated() before continuing with device enumeration...? Do you think it as a viable solution? Thanks Gab ��.n��������+%������w��{.n�����{�����ܨ}���Ơz�j:+v�����w����ޙ��&�)ߡ�a����z�ޗ���ݢj��w�f
