I have to port a custom platform driver written for 2.6.10 to support
this custom board.
That driver directly initializes the fs_platform_info data structure,
so after some failed attempts I thought to directly assign some values
to the fs_platform_info structure to see reuse part of the old code,
just to get the device to work.

Because I don't get any error during boot or when I run ifconfig, but
I don't see
any interrupt if I run 'cat /proc/interrupts':

If it isn't so, do you have any suggestion about how to re-add this
functionality to the existing code?
I will make some other tests taking as an example the mgcoge.dts which
seems the most similar to my custom board.
Thanks in advance,
