[patch] pxa168fb: use resource_size()
The size calculation is not correct. It should be end - start + 1. Use resource_size() to caculate it.

[PATCH resend] x86: hpet: work around wrong number of timers in ID register
Not every HPET implementation gets the index of the last timer correct; if this field is erroneously set to the timer count, the kernel will allocate one additional timer that does not actually exist. To work around this, create a helper function to read the number of timers and to check that the last timer actua... 22 Mar 2010 06:03
