This is what I said eight days ago:
| BTW, this may cause lots of conflicts from SFR when the follow-on patch
| which deletes the initializers is merged.  So rather than keeping this
| separate, it probably makes more sense for this patch to be merged into
| my tree now.

| BTW, it'd probably make more sense to do this as a script, something

| 
| grep -rl MACHINE_START arch/arm | xargs --no-run-if-empty \
|   sed -i '/MACHINE_START/,/MACHINE_END/ { /\.(phys_io|io_pg_offst)/d }'
| 
| as over time the number of boards, etc, will change, and there's already
| context changes with these patches caused by the memblock stuff.

My intention was to have your patch merged - as patches - into an
appropriate place in my tree, and then just before the merge window
run that script to remove all the references to phys_io/io_pg_offst,
and finally, some time later, the members from the structure.
