[PATCH 0/6] simplify platform_get_resource_byname/devm_ioremap_resource

[Julia Lawall]

devm_ioremap_resource often uses the result of a call to
platform_get_resource_byname as its last argument.  devm_ioremap_resource
does appropriate error handling on this argument, so error handling can be
removed from the call to platform_get_resource_byname.

The semantic patch that makes this change is as follows:
(http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)

// <smpl>
@@
expression pdev,res,n,e,e1;
expression ret != 0;
identifier l,f;
expression list es;
@@

(
  res = f(...);
- if (res == NULL) { ... \(goto l;\|return ret;\) }
  e = devm_ioremap_resource(e1, res);
|
- res = f(es);
  ... when != res
- if (res == NULL) { ... \(goto l;\|return ret;\) }
  ... when != res
+ res = f(es);
  e = devm_ioremap_resource(e1, res);
)
// </smpl>

In practice, f is always platform_get_resource_byname (or
platform_get_resource, which was handled by a previous patch series).  And
the call to platform_get_resource_byname always immediately precedes the
call to devm_ioremap_resource.
