Ok, I see. Full device tree support is certainly asking too much then.

Ok, cool.

Sounds good. Since it sounds like the hardware is available in all
imx27 device, maybe someone else can test your driver on an imx27
board that already has partial DT support when you add it to
arch/arm/boot/dts/imx27.dtsi?

Is there any reason why an imx27 based board would not support this
driver? Are there any other chips that could use it, e.g. imx25 or
imx6?
