OK, that hurts my brain.  And all those casts are pointless.  How about this?

	if (info < &cy_port[0] || info >= &cy_port[NR_PORTS]) {
		printk("Warning: cyclades_port out of range for (%s) in %s\n",
				name, routine);
		return 1;
	}



btw, m68k allmodconfig in current mainline is sick:

And in linux-next m68k allmodconfig is dead as a doornail:
