No probs. All suggestions and "templates" welcomed :-)

It does, tested :-) The probing order "legacy-then-RS1" is carefully
selected - it doesn't work the other way round.

I was considering something similar to
"arch/arm/mach-omap2/include/mach/debug-macro.S", but it made the code
even more obscure.

I don't see any point:
1. These value are used only and only here, so #defining them would just
add extra lines of traffic.
2. They correspond to numbers (as in: numbers) in DTS.
3. They will disappear once I'm done with MMCI and sysreg bindings. So
probably long before this series is actually merged...

Cheers!
