Re: [patch] 0/4 Support for Toshiba TMIO multifunction devices

Roughly went through the patch, looks good, here comes the remind, though :-)

1. is it possible to use some name other than "soc_core", maybe
"tmio_core" so that
other multifunction chips sharing a core base will live easier.

2. those C++ style comments "//" are not so pleasant...
