I think that in the 2.7.x timeframe, the right thing to do is definitely:
- move towards using "struct resource" and "ioremap_resource()"
- make resource sizes potentially be larger (ie use "u64" instead of "unsigned long")


Would still be nice to have a sysdata or struct device pointer in struct resource, then. I'm not a fan of wacky bus-info-encoded-in-another-number schemes.
