-Add such code to your \code{probe()} routine, with proper error
-handling when \code{res == NULL}, and print the start address
-(\code{res->start}) to make sure that the address values that
-you get match the ones in the device tree.

-You can remove the printing instruction as soon as the collected
-addresses are correct.

 \section{Create a device private structure}
 
-The next step is to start allocating and registering resources,
-which eventually will have to be freed and unregistered too.

 In the same way as in the nunchuk lab, we now need to create a
 structure that will hold device specific information and help
 keeping pointers between logical and physical devices.
 
 As the first thing to store will be the base virtual address for
-each device (obtained through \kfunc{ioremap}), let's declare this
-structure as follows:

 You can now get a virtual address for your device's base physical
 address, by calling:
 
 \begin{verbatim}
-dev->regs = devm_ioremap_resource(&pdev->dev, res);
+dev->regs = devm_platform_ioremap_resource(pdev, 0);
 if (IS_ERR(dev->regs))
