Searching for:

	"ARM: pxa: add resources to pxaficp_ir"

did not found anything, same was for "ficp" in the linux-arm-kernel/netdev/linux-kernel
mailing list archive.

Well this will be problem as I cannot save anything to an SD card after and during the failure.
Only viable interfaces would be earlycon on an infraport or high speed camera on LCD :-). 

But I was able to revert this commit:

	6464b71409511939efce1ae4fb4ec6e3483b11b2	mmc: pxamci: switch over to dmaengine use

and after that I am able to boot.

It is probably irelevant now, but for complete information:

Discovered on my working repo: mainline b8889c4fc6ba03e289cec6a4d692f6f080a55e53
Still present on fresh downloaded: linux-next 22dc312d56ba077db27a9798b340e7d161f1df05

Should I start new thread? (same bug can be present in the FICP too)

I will try to configure an initrd rootfs this should create more ways to save kernel log.


Anyway after mmc dma revert I was still not able to start FICP. There is an error:

	Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 32e00004

from pxa_irda_startup() and it seems it is caused by register definitions. For example:

	writel_relaxed((val), (irda)->stuart_base + (off));

is called by

	stuart_writel(si, 0, STIER);

but STIER is not just an offset, but full register address:
	
	__REG(0x40700004)

So the definition should be changed, unless there is another patch I did not received (in that case, send me full patchset again please) :-).


Best regards,
Petr
