Hi Michal Simek,

Just now, I tested that the same problem happens on ARM config.
Also, I solved it by adding '&' operator.

'&' operator is necessary as below:

        dev_dbg(dev, "regs: phys=%pa, virt=%p\n",
                 &drvdata->regs_phys, drvdata->regs);
                ^^^

        dev_dbg(dev, "fb: phys=%pa, virt=%p, size=%x\n",
                &drvdata->fb_phys, drvdata->fb_virt, fbsize);
               ^^^

Best regards,
Jingoo Han
