ixp4xx_faddr_t is a nice name for a structure ;)
What the initialization to {0, NULL} is for?
Also, if this is a per-chip thing as might be concluded by placing its
pointer into this->priv, why do you make it static structure?
Same goes for

Wrong whitespacing.

Wait please, can you explain the logic here?
It looks like you'll be writing by ixp_write_buf to different base
addresses depending on how ctrl was set.
Is this the expected behavior?

Wrong indentation.
Moreover, if the number of partitions obtained by parse_mtd_partitions
is the same as the one provided by platform data, you'll get leakage here.
