That would be great.
Since I'm moving to a new town, I won't have time in the next 2-3 weeks.

Yes, that was me. In the current code HILBASE refers to the variable hil_base
from drivers/gsc/hil.c. The address of the HIL-controller is
automatically set there by the detection routines.

No. The base-address is taken from the parisc-hw-tree. But maybe the choosen
interrupt-line is wrong for 715/old.
The HIL-bus itself has no PCIish tree (I mean: a list of the attached 
devices) yet.

Hmmm. ?
My 715/64 used to work with HIL-keyboard (keys come through, but the
translataion was wrong), but I haven't tested it in the last few weeks.
