Never tried to built it as a module.
Probably there are issues with that. If I remember correctly I saw a patch in 2.6.25-rc which
mentioned that using mfgpt in modules won't work. Does this apply to 2.6.24 as well?
For using code from modules it must be explicitely EXPORT_SYMBOL{,GPL}'ed.
Adding
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(geode_mfgpt_toggle_event);
and
EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(geode_mfgpt_alloc_timer);
below the respective functions in mfgpt_32.c should fix this issue.
I couldn't find the patch Arnd mentioned on lkml or in Linus git tree,
but adding the lines suggested by Adrian gets me a working module.
Hopefully the patch will arrive in the mainline tree at some point.
Thanks to both of you for the help!
Iain
