This looks very generic, setting and clearing bits in bytesized
registers.

Can you please attempt to use generic GPIO for this?

drivers/gpio/gpio-generic.c
<linux/basic_mmio_gpio.h>

See for example:
gpio-ep93xx.c, gpio-sodaville.c ...

Since you don't even have IRQ support in this it will be even simpler.

Yours,
