Device tree for c67x00

Hi,

 ok, so I have managed to give it some OF support in a preliminary way(see
patch). But now, I am facing serious problems which I am finding difficult
to tackle. I understand that maybe these problems have to do partially or
entirely to the Xilinx ML403. Let me explain myself: First of all, I don't
know of anyone else who has used it for the ML403 with the XPS_EPC , so
there might be some particularities I should specifically take care of.

 First of all, I see a resetting problem. When I load the kernel with my
board from a powered off state to a powered on state it behaves differently
that if I just to try to load the kernel again with the board powered on
(see ERROR 1 below). I have seen that the reset line in the c67300 is
connected to the fpga and for sure, to take care of it one would need to do
it through a third gpio line outside. This would be to make a hard reset.
Looking at this old specific driver that I have found for kernel 2.4.20 (
http://www.sysf.physto.se/~attila/ATLAS/Digitizer/Testbench/System_ISE_SoftMAC/linux/software/uClinux-2.4.x/drivers/usb/cy7c67300/<http://www.sysf.physto.se/%7Eattila/ATLAS/Digitizer/Testbench/System_ISE_SoftMAC/linux/software/uClinux-2.4.x/drivers/usb/cy7c67300/>)
I see that the hard resets are common using the ugly gpio method.

 With the board on, if I reload the fpga programming and kernel image into
memory and set the PC to run properly, it gives different errors. Sometimes
ERROR2 and some other times ERROR3. When ERROR2, the processor halts when
calling WARN_ON(!res) and in the second, the interrupt handler keeps writing
to the output endlessly.

 I have added some printks to trace the problem and the OF support is simply
a rewriting of the normal platform_driver registration. Any ideas?

Jorge
