lib: devres: add a comment about the devm_of_iomap() function
We recently introduced a bug when we tried to convert of_iomap() to
devm_of_iomap(). The problem was that there were two drivers mapping
the same io region. The first driver was using of_iomap() and the
second driver was using devm_of_iomap() and the kernel booted fine.
When we converted the first drive to use devm_of_iomap() then the second
driver failed with -EBUSY and the kernel couldn't boot.
Let's add a comment to prevent this sort of mistake in the future.
