The port->id was picked from the platform device .id field,
but this is not supposed to be used for passing around
random numbers in hardware. Identify the port ID number
from the base address instead.

This is necessary for Device Tree conversion: to DT
these are just three networking engines (NPEs) that the OS
can choose to use however it likes. When we move to DT we
cannot get these port numbers from the device tree.

That they behave differently and that the driver has to cope
with that is due to different firmware being loaded into the
different NPE:s. DT doesn't care about that. The firmware
can theoretically be changed, but the DT bindings can not.

This is extremely non-portable.

The resource values are %100 opaque architecture specific values.

On sparc64 for example, it is absolutely not the bus address but rather
the physical address that the cpu needs to use to perform MMIO's to what
is behind that resource.

I'm not applying this, sorry.

No problem, I'll think of something better, like adapting
Arnd's approach.

Could you apply patches 1-8?

Yours,

Sorry, that's not how patch submissions work.

Resubmit your series as you want me to apply it.  Make sure you update
your cover letter appropriately.

Thanks.
