The window of the Aspeed AST2400 SMC Controller to map chips on the
AHB Bus has a 256MB size. 64MB is the default size for the first chip
select and not the full window range: [ 0x20000000 - 0x2FFFFFFF ].

How does the second part of reg property in DT relate to this ?
DT binding example has it set to 0x02000000 = 32 MiB ...

Thanks for pointing this out. There is an inconsistency and
a redundancy here ... The patch is wrong as I am mixing up 
different limits. Anyhow, there are some concerns to discuss. 

The DT binding is the size of the overall AHB window in which 
a controller can directly memory access the chips bound to 
itself. This is for the Command mode.

The .maxsize attribute, not being used until this patchset, 
holds the size limit of a chip that the controller supports 
to do direct memory access. This limit is 64MB on the AST2400 
and 256MB (full window) on the AST2500. 

I think that this value should be moved in the DT also ? 

The second thing to do is to retrieve the size of the overall 
AHB window from the DT and stop using the .maxsize attribute 
in the subsequent patches configuring the segment registers 
and introducing the command mode.

But the SPI controller window on the AST2400 is :

	 [ 0x30000000 - 0x3FFFFFFF ] 

which is a problem because, if I remember well, it requires us 
to configure CONFIG_VMSPLIT_2G to reserve space for the iomap.
I am not sure how to correctly handle that case, today we are 
just defining a small 32MB window.


Thanks,

C.

No, I don't think so, this is a chip property which can be derived from
the compatible string, right ?
