Again, apologies for the delay.  Aside from the incorrect sysfs usage
I pointed out in my other reply, I have just a few comments/questions
below.

I don't see any users of this header included in the patch.  I'm going
to guess that follow-on drivers/users are queued once this is in the
tree?  Also, you might want to name these 'ppc4xx_ocm_alloc' or
similar.  The concept of OCM isn't limited to ppc4xx or even SoCs, so
just using 'ocm' in the global kernel namespace might not be great.

Why do you need proc_fs.h?

There's some interesting whitespace usage in these struct definitions.
