Casting the return value which is a void pointer is redundant.
The conversion from void pointer to any other pointer type is

fixmem32 is assigned to address of res->data member
so the address is always valid
Actually since we are not checking for res != NULL
static analyzing is complaining about referencing the pointer
and consequent check for null.
The code snippet looks confusing also for human eyes.

BMC support for PARISC machines
Add MODULE_ALIAS for autoloading ipmi driver on ACPI systems
ipmi: Initialize locals to avoid warning
ipmi: info leak in compat_ipmi_ioctl()
The last line of PARISC machines (C8000, RP34x0, etc.) have a BMC for
controlling temperature, fan speed and other stuff. The BMC is
connected via a special bus and listed in the firmware device tree.
This change adds support for these BMCs to the IPMI driver.

The newly added omap4 support in the driver was added without
consideration for building older configs. When building omap1_defconfig,
it resulted in:
drivers/char/hw_random/omap-rng.c:190:12: warning: 'omap4_rng_init' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
drivers/char/hw_random/omap-rng.c:215:13: warning: 'omap4_rng_cleanup' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
drivers/char/hw_random/omap-rng.c:251:20: warning: 'omap4_rng_irq' defined but not used [-Wunused-function]
Move the code around so it is grouped with its operations struct, which
for the omap4 case means also under the #ifdef CONFIG_OF, where it needs
to be.

Remove unneeded error handling on the result of a call to
platform_get_resource when the value is passed to devm_ioremap_resource.
Move the call to platform_get_resource adjacent to the call to
devm_ioremap_resource to make the connection between them more clear.
A simplified version of the semantic patch that makes this change is as
follows: (http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/)
// <smpl>

Add support for OMAP4 version of TRNG module
that is present on OMAP4, AM33xx and OMAP5 SoCs.
The modules have several differences including register
offsets, output size, triggering rng and how configuring
FROs. To handle these differences, a platform_data structure
is defined and contains routine pointers, register offsets. OMAP2
specific routines are prefixed with 'omap2_' and OMAP4
specific routines are prefixed with 'omap4_'.
Note: Few Hard coded values are from the TI AM33xx SDK.

If a port gets unplugged while a user is blocked on read(), -ENODEV is
returned. However, subsequent read()s returned 0, indicating there's no
host-side connection (but not indicating the device went away).
This also happened when a port was unplugged and the user didn't have
any blocking operation pending. If the user didn't monitor the SIGIO
signal, they won't have a chance to find out if the port went away.
Fix by returning -ENODEV on all read()s after the port gets unplugged.
write() already behaves this way.

SIGIO should be sent when a port gets unplugged. It should only be sent
to prcesses that have the port opened, and have asked for SIGIO to be
delivered. We were clearing out guest_connected before calling
send_sigio_to_port(), resulting in a sigio not getting sent to
processes.
Fix by setting guest_connected to false after invoking the sigio
function.

We used to keep the port's char device structs and the /sys entries
around till the last reference to the port was dropped. This is
actually unnecessary, and resulted in buggy behaviour:
1. Open port in guest
2. Hot-unplug port
3. Hot-plug a port with the same 'name' property as the unplugged one
This resulted in hot-plug being unsuccessful, as a port with the same
name already exists (even though it was unplugged).
This behaviour resulted in a warning message like this one:
-------------------8<---------------------------------------

Instead of relying on guest applications to release all references to
the ports, we should go ahead and unregister the port from all the core
layers. Any open/read calls on the port will then just return errors,
and an unplug/plug operation on the host will succeed as expected.
This also caused buggy behaviour in case of the device removal (not just
a port): when the device was removed (which means all ports on that
device are removed automatically as well), the ports with active
users would clean up only when the last references were dropped -- and
it would be too late then to be referencing char device pointers,
resulting in oopses:

Between open() being called and processed, the port can be unplugged.
Check if this happened, and bail out.
A simple test script to reproduce this is:
while true; do for i in $(seq 1 100); do echo $i > /dev/vport0p3; done; done;
This opens and closes the port a lot of times; unplugging the port while
this is happening triggers the bug.

It seems to induce pagefault in sg_init_tabel() when pipe->nrbufs is equal to
zero. This may happen in a following situation:
(1) The application normally does splice(read) from a kernel buffer, then does
splice(write) to virtio-serial.
(2) The application receives SIGINT when is doing splice(read), so splice(read)
is failed by EINTR. However, the application does not finish the operation.
(3) The application tries to do splice(write) without pipe->nrbufs.
(4) The virtio-console driver tries to touch scatterlist structure sgl in
sg_init_table(), but the region is out of bound.
To avoid the case, a kernel should check whether pipe->nrbufs is empty or not
when splice_write is executed in the virtio-console driver.
