I haven't been following this very closely. The problem is that you have
a system with two different kinds of OHCI controllers, thus requiring two
different and incompatible versions of the driver?
If the only source of incompatibility is the module_init() and
module_exit() routines, then your suggestion would be a simple fix.
Ugly, yes, but I don't think anyone will really mind.
Is there anything else to prevent you from combining multiple HCIs into a
single driver?
