sil57xx should generally work fine as PMP device.  There has been some
detection related problem with recent firmwares which isn't fixed yet
but it should generally work.  The hardest part is to put the chip
into vanilla PMP mode.  The reference board I have has this rotary
switch and I need to put it into JBOD mode and press another small
mode-set switch to actually make the transition.

Can you post kernel boot log?
