Bryan,

TI is interested in modularizing some of the syslink drivers. The first 2
patches are required before that can be done. Please have a look to make
sure its the right thing to do. I assume the right way to get everything loaded is to add
notify_ducatidriver to /etc/modules.

There is also a wicked symbol reference dependency between 2 modules that you ought to have a look at:

(maverick-armel)root at tyler:/home/rtg/kern/maverick/armel/junk# depmod -b `pwd` 2.6.34-901-omap4
WARNING: Module /lib/modules/2.6.34-901-omap4/kernel/drivers/dsp/syslink/multicore_ipc/syslink_ipc.ko ignored, due to loop
WARNING: Loop detected: /home/rtg/kern/maverick/armel/junk/lib/modules/2.6.34-901-omap4/kernel/drivers/dsp/syslink/ipu_pm/syslink_ipu_pm.ko needs syslink_ipc.ko which needs syslink_ipu_pm.ko again!
WARNING: Module /lib/modules/2.6.34-901-omap4/kernel/drivers/dsp/syslink/ipu_pm/syslink_ipu_pm.ko ignored, due to loop

Anyways, try this out on your hardware.
