The problem is that in 36-bit mode the physical addresses are 64-bit, which means that you get 64-bit integers when you read something from the device tree with fdtdec_get_addr. But the device tree addresses themselves seem to be 32-bit, because if I read a property like 'reg = <0xf000 0x100>', I get a 64-bit value that contains two 32-bit values, so I have to do 'addr = reg >> 32; size = reg & 0xFFFFFFFF;' to extract them (see the patch). Doing that poses a problem if you use the 32-bit mode, though, since then the physical addresses are 32-bit.
After reading your comment (and a bit of digging), I found the fdtdec_get_addr_size_auto_noparent function, which seems to fix that problem (by taking the parent's address-size values into account). I'll respin the patches with that function and Simon's concerns addressed.
Addresses from the reg properties should be read with functions like platform_get_resource(). You're not supposed to be reading the device tree properties directly.
