Re: Appropriate method of io remapping a single memory location?

that DT is always recommended. I would use something like of_find_compatible_node() + of_iomap() on the syscon device for that (after of_platform_populate()). Probably you could use also directly the physical location or a iotable but it is definitely uglier IMO. -- Carlo Caione
