Ramos Falcon, Ernesto had written, on 07/28/2010 09:40 AM, the following:
Remove unnecessary volatile variables; use accessor
functions __raw_readl/__raw_writel instead when applicable.

curious question: any reason not to use writel instead of __raw_writel?

may be for a later on patch -> we seem to have a potential infinite loop here..

a) is the u32 cast of tmp_va_buff really necessary?
b) tmp_va_buff is used only in this branch, why not reduce the scope of the variable to just to this if branch
or an optional way could be:
