Could this not in theory fail?
Yes, but devm_ioremap_resource will take care of it, so we don't need
to check for error here.
Nothing like counter intuitive behaviour. Ah well.
Thanks for explaining this!
Maybe it would be better to have:
mem = platform_ioremap_resource(pdev, IORESOURCE_MEM, 0);
which wraps up both the platform_get_resource() call with
devm_ioremap_resource() so driver writers don't have to be concerned
about this aspect?
Good idea.
Something like that would certainly make more sense to me.
