The ioremap_nocache with LE_BYTE_SWAP didn't help. I will return it ioremap.

I tried printk("HKC: Raw output of flash address =0x%x\n", *(unsigned
int*)0x8000000) but resulted in kernel panic. I'm starting to think this is
a virtual memory problem. Do I need a TLB entry for the device?

Yes, I have double-checked the hardware specs. I also have the board and
flash working with VxWorks which has a flat memory model.
Any other ideas?
Thanks.
