I will take care of this using separate map_io as you mentioned on
the other mail on patch 2 comment.

Do you think the 2nd case restriction mentioned in this patch comment is OK?

" 2) OMAP3 only build with CONFIG_SOC_OMAPTI816X: This will build TI816X
 optimized kernel. May not boot on other OMAP3 SoCs."

As I had mentioned on follow up on Paul's comment on v4, some OMAP3 specific
code may get skipped on non-multi-omap builds with CONFIG_SOC_OMAPTI816X
(cpu_is_ti816x() is true) such as:

-       if (omap_rev() >= OMAP3430_REV_ES2_0)     
+       if (!cpu_is_ti816x() && (omap_rev() >= OMAP3430_REV_ES2_0)) 
                omap3_clk_lock_dpll5();    

Thanks.
