The present implementation of __of_translate_address() taken
from the Linux, is designed for translate bus/child address
mappings by using 'ranges' property - and it doesn't allow
for checking an address for a device's node with zero size-cells.
The 'size-cells > 0' is required for bus/child address mapping,
but is not required for non-memory mapped address, e.g.: I2C chip.
Then when we need only raw 'reg' property's value.
Since the I2C device address goes to a single-cell reg property,
support for that case is welcome, but currently calling dev_get_addr()
for I2C device will return 'FDT_ADDR_T_NONE', and print the warning:
warning:
__of_translate_address: Bad cell count for 'some-dev'
This patch takes the wrong approach.
It simply doesn't make sense to /attempt/ to translate an I2C address
into an MMIO address space. It's a nonsensical operation; no such
translation is possible under any circumstances because I2C and MMIO
addresses mean completely different things and simply can't be
translated to each-other.
Rather than making this nonsensical operation succeed in a way that
gives the desired no-op result, the nonsensical operation simply
shouldn't be performed in the first place.
