The commit message just says "This helps to make code cleaner a tad."
but it doesn't mention devm_platform_ioremap_resource_byname().  That
information is there in the subject but not in the commit message itself.
Take a look at the link I sent you and try to find the subject.  It's
far away from the commit message.
