Hi Alan and Andy,
I was trying like:

But I am getting:
ERROR: "xr17v35x_gpio_exit" [drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_pci.ko] undefined!
ERROR: "xr17v35x_gpio_init" [drivers/tty/serial/8250/8250_pci.ko] undefined!

I will need little hint for the Makefile, please. Its clear that i have
messed up.

sudip
