Right. Thanks for the hint!
Technically, I ported the bug, didn't introduce it ;-)
(pdev->resource[0].start was previously provided via resource already in
IO_ADDRESS (mapped) format). Nevertheless, it's a bug, of course, and it
didn't show up since the driver seems to not use hcd->rsrc_start anyway
(but hcd->regs).
Will post an update after making sure it's tested well.
