An alternative approach (which Jason Gunthorpe posted a patch for
recently IIRC) is to add probe support to the plat-ram driver so it can
work with any kind of chip. I have a patch kicking around doing pretty
much that but also renaming the driver to make it look less strange when
used.
My patch is below - it probably ought to have the re-addition of write
protection methods which I had stripped out since I've got partially
written support for paging in chips and thought the two might end up
related.
