In the public documentation of the omaps all SSI related stuff is
missing and memory areas are marked as reserved. I could not find
out how to receive the NDA version, so the following is purely
speculation based on the code.

If I understand it right the HW looks like this:

+-----------------+
|    GDD (DMA)    | <- this one is currently called ssi-controller
+--------+--------+
| Port 1 | Port 2 | <- these are currently called ssi-port
+--------+--------+

I think the GDD part must be enabled while Port 1 or Port 2 is
enabled. The last RFC driver from Carlos did not even split up the
irq/memory areas into different platform devices, but just requested
all of them in one ssi platform device.

Sure. They are almost finished btw. I was able to get a gsm network
scan.
