While it is useful for new drivers to use devm_platform_ioremap_resource, this script is currently used to spam maintainers, often updating very old drivers. The net benefit is the removal of 2 lines of code in the driver but the review load for the maintainers is huge. As of now, more that 560

Anyway, FWIW:
