Well I just commented on Tero on that regarding the dra7 patch. I think
we need to have separate scm instances for scm_device, scm_core and
scm_wkup instead of doing multiple ranges. This based on looking at for
example 5432 TRM "Figure 18-1. Control Module Overview".
But here I think it's a different issue. You want to use ranges for getting
the m3 address space for the firmware? I'm not convinced we should
complicate the ranges for all l4_wkup drivers because of that.

Tony
