But how should I then do this? As I understood it I was told that I should
call an init function, but I was not allowed to add any staging folder
inclusion in the board config makefile. And now I can't do any extern
declaration either. I don't really see how I could do it then.

The only thing I can think of is to use platform device and driver for
the cg2900_init. But I wouldn't call that to call an init-function, but that
might be OK for this purpose?

Thanks,
