It works on the Momenco Ocelot MIPS board - all the endianness funnies have 
been worked out. Check that 0xb2000000 is a _physical_ address, not a 
virtual address - it looks suspicious for a MIPS system, where normally 
only addresses under 0x20000000 are easily accessible. 

Also check how the DiskOnChip is wired up - whether its registers are 1 
byte, 2 bytes or 4 bytes apart as the CPU sees them. Look at the various 
forms of the ReadDOC_() and WriteDOC_() macros in include/linux/mtd/doc2000.h
and pick the correct one (or experiment).

Make sure the bus controller is set up properly for the wiring of the 
DiskOnChip too - for the Ocelot, we had to do that ourself, because the 
boot loader didn't (see the last two lines of momenco_ocelot_setup() in 
arch/mips/gt64120/momenco_ocelot/setup.c)
