hmm, I'm really sorry about that... That is my bad. I'm so bad with naming.

I suggested mmio in the name because i915_range is way to generic.
The other extreme side.

Perhaps i915_addr_range ?

But I would be okay if the consensus is simply i915_range.

I just had the same feeling while reading this patch again.
Specially because it phrases like table contain ... table first contain last...

Sorry for not noticing it before as well.

But I was on the fence on this one because it was already like that addr,range
and the other range infra that we consider also uses the style addr,range.
