Exactly. You program the CS with a physical address. Make sure that
address does not overlap with anything else. Then you call ioremap
from your driver and you get back a virtual address. You use that
virtual address to access the peripheral.
At this stage I would say that probably reading something like the
Linux Kernel book or Linux Device Drivers both by Oreilly will
really help you.
