Sorry, C++ force-of-habit. How's this instead?  (please note, I also
retitled the patch to refer to lpc_ich specifically)

Subject: [PATCH v2 5/5] mfd: lpc_ich: Fix resource request for [mem 0x00000000]

The older southbridges supported by the lpc_ich driver do not
provide memory-mapped space of the root complex. The driver
correctly avoids computing the iomem address in this case, yet
submits a zeroed resource request anyway (via mfd_add_devices()).

Remove the iomem resource from the resource array submitted to the
mfd core for the older southbridges.
