I'm agree with you about the existing comment that is not really crystal clear.

The combined helper introduce a call to devm_request_mem_region() that create a
new busy resource region on PRM_IRQSTATUS_MPU register (0x4ae06010). The first
devm_request_mem_region() call succeed for regulator-abb-ivahd but fail for the
two other regulator-abb-dspeve and regulator-abb-gpu.

Here is the iomem content without this patch:
# cat /proc/iomem | grep -i 4ae06
4ae06010-4ae06013 : 4ae07e34.regulator-abb-ivahd int-address
4ae06014-4ae06017 : 4ae07ddc.regulator-abb-mpu int-address

regulator-abb-dspeve and regulator-abb-gpu are missing due to
devm_request_mem_region() failure (EBUSY)

I don't know how to fix this issue keeping
devm_platform_ioremap_resource_byname() when the same address is used several
time... suggestion welcome.

I added such human description above in the commit log but forgot to update this
one, sorry.

Thank you for the review.

Best regards,
