[coreboot] [PATCH] Fix infinite loop in pnp_get_ioresource()

[Stefan Reinauer]

Hi Alexandru,

thanks for finding this issue. I think I ran into this before. We
should not silently continue in this case, and not create a resource
either. The problem is most likely caused by a faulty devicetree.cb or
superio driver. Hence, I suggest to print an error instead. See patch.
Can you test, please? It should tell you which device / index is
causing the problem.

Stefan
