In some cases drivers referencing a reserved-memory region might want to remap the entire region, but when defining the reserved-memory by "size" the client driver has no means to know the associated base address of the reserved memory region. This patch adds an accessor for such drivers to acquire a handle to their associated reserved-memory for this purpose. A complicating factor for the implementation is that the reserved_mem objects are created from the flattened DeviceTree, as such we can't use the device_node address for comparison. Fortunately the name of the node will be used as "name" of the reserved_mem and will be used when building the full_name, so we can compare the "name" with the basename of the full_name to find the match.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
