Using GPIO

[Guillaume Dargaud]

Thanks for the answer,

My question was more general, since arch/ppc will soon (?) disapear...

Yes, and I've taken care to define that.

Seems straightforward enough, but when I add the following:

// 0 is LEDS_4BIT, 1 is LEDS_POSITIONS, 2 is PUSH_BUTTONS_POSITION
#define XPAR_GPIO(num) { \
    .name = "xilinx_gpio", \
    .id = num, \
    .num_resources = 3, \
    .resource = (struct resource[]) { \
        { \
            .start = XPAR_GPIO_##num##_BASEADDR, \
            .end = XPAR_GPIO_##num##_HIGHADDR, \
            .flags = IORESOURCE_MEM, \
        }, \
        { \
            .start = XPAR_INTC_0_GPIO_##num##_VEC_ID, \
            .flags = IORESOURCE_IRQ, \
        }, \
    }, \
}
[...]
      /* GPIO instances */
#if defined(XPAR_GPIO_0_BASEADDR)
      XPAR_GPIO(0),
#endif
#if defined(XPAR_GPIO_1_BASEADDR)
      XPAR_GPIO(1),
#endif
#if defined(XPAR_GPIO_2_BASEADDR)
      XPAR_GPIO(2),
#endif

Then the boot stops right after "Uncompressing Linux...done.
Now booting the kernel"

I've probably overlooked something obvious, but I'm pretty new in putting my 
greasy fingers on delicate kernel internals...
In particular I don't know what is this .num_resources value.
