Thanks for your contribution. At a first glance, this driver looks
similar to the pch_can and the c_can driver. It seems that a C_CAN based
controller is used on that board as well. If that's true, it should be
handled by the C_CAN driver. To get ride of the obsolete pch_can driver,
I sent some time ago the patch "[RFC/PATCH] c_can: add driver for the
PCH CAN controller":

  http://marc.info/?t=132991563600003&r=1&w=4

I could serve as base of a generic c_can_pci driver.

Wolfgang.
