I would prefer if fdt_translate_address() returned resource_size_t (which is the proper type for handling addresses as integers) and that type was propagated through early_init_dt_scan_chosen_serial => of_setup_earlycon. Regards, Peter Hurley PS - It seems that there is a new user of fdt_translate_address() in the nios arch: commit e8bf5bc776edef44777b13b2eb4461d653519bae Author: Ley Foon Tan <lftan@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue Feb 10 23:21:08 2015 +0800 nios2: add early printk support Signed-off-by: Ley Foon Tan <lftan@xxxxxxxxxx> I've copied the author as that should have been an earlycon in the altera uart driver(s) rather than early_printk.
