Formally this should have type resource_size_t, I think.  Or `void
__iomem *'.  But given the limited applicability of this driver
(geode-only), I guess u32 is OK.

hm, ulong isn't a particularly popular "type" in the kernel.  But I
guess it's stable enough.

What are the implications of not having suspend/resume support?
