The general idea of this patch is fine.  However, I have some questions:

this is more like a rename.  Why was this done?  It would be good to explain in
the commitlog

If the address is different for c100 and c110: why do we need a S5CP1XX_*
definition?  In my personal opinion, all those compile-time defines are a
kludge and we should not introduce more of them.  They will bite us in the back
if we ever in the future want to build a kernel that can boot on both c100 and
c110.

Again here. We already have the c100 specific define.  Why add a new c1xx define?

this is the change I like.

This is the wrong kind of change, from my point of view.  We don't know yet
if all future s5pc1xx products will also have the same address, do we?
