gpiomtd->io_sync is a void __iomem *, but we need a struct resource here 
so that we can do the release_mem_region().  I could store the struct 
resource pointer in gpiomtd rather than calling gpio_nand_get_io_sync() 
twice though, I'm happy to change if you prefer.

Note that for the device tree case, the iosync register isn't in the reg 
property so we can't do platform_get_resource() to get it.  We do this 
because the io_sync address isn't actually a gpio nand resource and 
can't always be expressed as such in the device tree.
