Hi,

To perform a Memory Mapped access of a device, I setup the OR and BR
registers in the bootloader (u-boot). I am able to read and write to
the device being in the u-boot prompt. However, when I try to access
the device after the Linux kernel boots up (say, in a driver), it
gives me a exception message as follows.

My platform is MPC880 Processor.

Do I need to setup something more in the kernel?
