This device driver is a platform driver, so you need to register a
platform device somewhere in your board-specific init code that contains
the hardware details (memory mapping and IRQ #). You can either pass
this in via device tree or hard code it. I chose the latter in order to
get up and runninq quickly. Here's the init function I use. CS0 is @
0xe4000000, CS1 is @ 0xe4100000 and I'm using IRQ20, which is one of the
external IRQs on my CPU:
/* Compact Flash Initialization */
static int __init prism_setup_cf(void)
{
struct resource r[3];
struct platform_device *cf_dev;
unsigned int virq;
memset(&r, 0, sizeof(r));
r[0].start = 0xe4000000;
r[0].end = 0xe400000f;
r[0].flags = IORESOURCE_MEM;
r[1].start = 0xe4100000;
r[1].end = 0xe410000f;
r[1].flags = IORESOURCE_MEM;
virq = irq_find_mapping(NULL, 20);
set_irq_type(virq, IRQ_TYPE_EDGE_FALLING);
r[2].start = virq;
r[2].end = 0;
r[2].flags = IORESOURCE_IRQ;
cf_dev = platform_device_register_simple("mmio-cfide", 0, r, 3);
return (cf_dev ? 0 : PTR_ERR(cf_dev));
}

Glad to help.
