So have we answered your question regarding the inclusion of DMA and
CPM in the platform_device array? If I am reading this correctly, all
the individual CPM "objects" should be defined in the device structure
with their physical address location defined. The complete IMMAP
structure can then be constructed from these objects if required.
Actually, I dont feel that anyone has given a reason why or how they 
would use CPM, DMA, SI1, SI2 if they were platform devices.
Think about the breaking up of the immap structure into little pieces 
with offsets defined in platform_devices....  This is how I read the 
previous conversation.

Is it possible to add some flags to the IORESOURCE information to
address the differences in SCC structures between processor types?
Perhaps something like this could be used to apply the correct
structure cast in the device driver. Just a thought...
I envisioned this being a field in the platform_data structures for 
the devices.
Then you envision a device specific structure for each platform_device, 
even if the sole purpose is to convey version information? Ok...
