The idea from this patch is clean.
Yours patch does not apply to the kernel from
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git,
but I apply its content by hands and kernels compiled successfully with
stamp9g20_defconfig and pcontrol_g20_defconfig.

Please run ./scripts/checkpatch.pl with you patch and correct all errors
and warnings reported. 

If you will correct this patch, to be applicable, then I will vote to
include it into mainline.

Which kernel repository and branch should I use for the AT91 ARM?
I just want to know - whereto send my next patch to support gms machine?

Best regards!
