I just found a bug in the conflict detection code, so I put it in a
repository to prevent the broken script to enter the archives. You can
find it on

It makes
#define MX6Q_SCU_BASE_ADDR 0x00a00000
superfluous. And in case the real address is different it might make
IMX_IO_P2V(real scu address) != scu_io_desc.virtual
which makes the scriptable check for conflicts kind of useless and might
come as a surprise.
