    Thank you for finding the time to do this work. You're not the first
    to be blocked by this limitation, but you are the first who found the
    time to propose a patch.
    
    I think we should complete the rework to make the flash device
    optional too. Can you do a v2 with a proposal for that?

    Should it print a message here? I think a dev_dbg makes sense.

    Print a debug message when we didn't find the node.

    Down below here is this line:
    
    >        dev_info(dev, "Loaded at %pr\n", &resm);
    
    As resm is first used for the flash resource and then the memory
    region, it will display the location of the flash when the memory
    region is not present. This is confusing. You should either print out
    the regions separately, or consider removing this dev_info completely.

Yes it did confuse me too and I also thought of removing it. I was waiting for your opinion __
