I2C module problem on 8260

I'm having a problem with the I2C on a custom 8260 board. I modified the
8xx device driver (I've seen it called the Dan Malek driver) and am trying
to load it as a module. I discovered in so doing that the virtual address
space that the module is placed in does not allow the use of __pa to get a
virtual address. I looked at the 860 driver that we are using on a
different board, and it has the same issue. But, it is compiled into the
kernel, hence won't have that problem. My question is two-fold. First, is
there a smarter version of __pa that understand how to get the physical
address of a construct in a dynamically loaded module? Second, is this a
bug in the I2C, and I just happened to be using the module form where the
bug shows up? I have included below the output (snipped) of insmod -m to
show the symbol. My system has only 64 MB of SDRAM, hence virtual SDRAM
addresses range from 0xc0000000 to 0xc3ffffff. Thanks!
