+Subject: [PATCH] mtd: bcm47xxsflash: use uncached MMIO access for BCM53573
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+BCM53573 is a new series of Broadcom's SoCs. It's based on ARM and uses
+this old ChipCommon-based flash access. Early tests resulted in flash
+corruptions that were tracked down to using cached MMIO for flash read
+access. Switch to ioremap_nocache conditionally to support BCM53573 and
+don't break performance on old MIPS devices.
