FWIW, I quite like Anatolij's driver: it has PCI and OF bindings, plus
the patch description states that the driver supports Mint controllers
as well, and I have some hardware that actually needs the support for
Mint GDCs. (Today we just configure the GDC in the firmware and linux
use offb.c driver with static setup, w/o ability to change modes e.t.c.)
