The two legs of the else end up with duplicated code except for a single
parameter to add_legacy_port().

Better would be:

{
	int iotype;
        ...

	tsi = of_get_parent(np);
	if (of_node_is_type(tsi, "tsi-bridge"))
		iotype = UPIO_TSI;
	else
		iotype = UPIO_MEM;

	of_node_put(tsi);
        return add_legacy_port(np, -1, iotype, addr, addr, 0, legacy_port_flags, 0);
}


cheers
