For addresses, we fully compute the full fully resolved physical address of all registers of an OF device very early at bootup time when we first scan the device tree. Same goes for interrupts, we fully compute them early in the bootup process. Also, we support multiple interrupts for a device. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
