see dev_dbg etc and the fmt support in them - they will do all this for
you nicely and the various printks can become dev_* which will tidy it up
and give more info

These shouldn't be magic macros especially if creating variables and give
the multiple references to addr will break on things like ++ - use a
function so it is typechecked and variables behave as espected.

I'd have expected these to be resources of the platform device but I
guess that if they are entirely fixed it doesn't really matter much.

What happens if an IRQ occurs at this point, you have no handler for it ?

pr_err/dev_err etc - in general

prinkt isn't needed

Also you've done no checks to see if it's being loaded on the right
board. I'd actually have expected a single chunk of code in
arch/x86/platform/ts5500 or similar to do the board check and create the
platform devices, and this code to just register them.
