Glad to oblige.

I don't where that function is actually defined - I assume it is in one
of the other recent patch sets.

/me searches ...
/me reads "ad7414 driver" email ...
/me notes spaces missing there as well :-)

Tricky.  You have something that can only be built in (pika_dtm_thread in
warp.c) calling something that might be a module ... I think you need to
think of a new way of organizing these pieces. 

While I am looking, the return type of ioremap is "void __iomem *", so
you need to annotate your "fpga" variable appropriately and the parameter
to pika_dtm_thread.

You seem to have forgotten some of the spaces after "if"s, "switch"s and
"while"s.
