Probably they should be fixed... Only two users left:

$ git-grep cpm2_immr drivers/
drivers/mtd/maps/wr_sbc82xx_flash.c:    volatile memctl_cpm2_t *mc = &cpm2_immr->im_memctl;
drivers/mtd/maps/wr_sbc82xx_flash.c:    mc = &cpm2_immr->im_memctl;
drivers/net/fs_enet/fs_enet-main.c:     fs_enet_immap = cpm2_immr;
drivers/net/fs_enet/mac-fcc.c:  fep->fcc.mem = (void __iomem *)cpm2_immr;

I think wr_sbc82xx_flash.c is superseded by the physmap_of driver. There
is no single CONFIG_MTD_SBC8240 enabled in the powerpc/configs.

Plus, I wonder how they didn't break the build all that time w/o
EXPORT_SYMBOL(). Probably nobody tried to build them as modules.

At least I always thought so...

Thanks,
