I still see no usage of "drv->base" outside of the probe function even
after applying your whole patch series. That implies that it can just
stay as a local variable.

If you have a later patch series that needs "drv->base" in some other
RPMH function then this patch should be moved to the front of that
series. Until then it feels like it should be dropped.
