8250_of supports a reg-offset property which is intended to handle cases where the device registers start at an offset inside the region of memory allocated to the device. The Xilinx 16550 UART, for which this support was initially added, requires this. However, the code did not adjust the overall size of the mapped region accordingly, causing the driver to request an area of memory past the end of the device's allocation. For example, if the UART was allocated an address of 0xb0130000, size of 0x10000 and reg-offset of 0x1000 in the device tree, the region of memory reserved was b0131000-b0140fff, which caused the driver for the region starting at b0140000 to fail to probe. Fix this by subtracting reg-offset from the mapped region size. Fixes: b912b5e2cfb3 ([POWERPC] Xilinx: of_serial support for Xilinx uart 16550.)

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
