Hi Wolfram:

This is the first and only one of the patch series I looked at.

I'm not so sure this is appropriate.

devm_ioremap_resource returns ERR_PTR(-EINVAL) for
null resource so this changes the return.

devm_ioremap_resource also emits a noisy dev_err
message when resource is NULL.

It's a probe and before the message log would be silent
but now there's a new dmesg.

Perhaps that should be mentioned in the changelog here
and elsewhere in the series.
