No inline functions in .c files please. Let the compiler decide.

There is an ioread8(). Is it invalid to do a byte read for this
hardware? If so, it is probably worth a comment.

You don't see nedev_alert() used very often. If this is fatal then
netdev_err().

Also, EPERM? man 3 errno say:

       EPERM           Operation not permitted (POSIX.1-2001).

Why is this a permission issue?

Potentially endless loops like this are a bad idea. If the firmware
crashes, you are never getting out of here. Please use one of the
macros from iopoll.h

dev_id is a void *, so you don't need the cast.
