Question about AMBA device registering



Hi all.
can anybody explain me these lines:

    for (pid = 0, i = 0; i < 4; i++)
                        pid |= (readl(tmp + 0xfe0 + 4 * i) & 255) << (i * 8);
                for (cid = 0, i = 0; i < 4; i++)
                        cid |= (readl(tmp + 0xff0 + 4 * i) & 255) << (i * 8);

                iounmap(tmp);

                if (cid == 0xb105f00d)
                        dev->periphid = pid;

                if (dev->periphid)
                        ret = device_register(&dev->dev);
                else
                        ret = -ENODEV;

in amba.c, in /arc/arm/common. I pasted the whole
amba_device_register() fnc. below.

I need to register my i2c_device as an amba_device, so I have question
about .periphid member od amba_device struct. What number does it
represent? Is it connected to above lines found in amba.c and how?
Looks like it is, but I can decypher these...

I have UARTS defined as amba_device:
static struct amba_device uart0_device = {
        .dev            = {
                .bus_id = "dev:00",
        },
        .res            = {
                .start  = UART0_BASE,
                .end    = UART0_BASE + SZ_4K - 1,
                .flags  = IORESOURCE_MEM,
        },
        .irq            = { UARTINTR0_VECTOR, NO_IRQ },
        .periphid       = 0x0041010,

};

Here stands .periphid   = 0x0041010. Why?  Is this number something
specific to AMBA or to UART? I can find this nuber figure in several
more files, like arch/arm/mach-integrator/core
.c, but also for uart
device...

Also, can anybody describe me .bus_id part of .dev structure (why is it
initialized to "dev:00" and what are possible initializers)? In
arch/arm/mach-integrator/core.c there stands "mb:15", "mb:16"... for
devices. In mine core.c they start from "dev:00". Still I can not
understand what this value means...
