Hmm, size_t is ok, but perhaps the same type you used struct pru_irq_rsc is better.

Yeah, ok with me.

Please don't use "we" in debug traces, and just the summary of the error trace.

Or you can keep the first two lines generic, "... dealing with PRU firmware
specific sections", and only add the details in the second paragraph in this
patch. The commit in code above resource table + these two links should suffice
for patch 2.

I think you've misunderstood my answer: I agreed with your suggestion
to rephrase this trace to ".pru_irq_map section truncated" but
additionally I wanted to say that I will also update the comment (not
the dev_err trace) which is located two lines above.

The same as above :)

Ok.
