My concern is with these lines:

	write_ssi_mask(&ssi->sier, 0, CCSR_SSI_SIER_TDMAE);
...
	write_ssi_mask(&ssi->sier, CCSR_SSI_SIER_TDMAE, 0);

This toggles the TDMAE interrupt on PowerPC, which I believe is VITAL to 
making it work.  The SSI and the DMA controller talk to each other 
automatically, and if I'm reading the documentation correctly, that 
communication depends on TDMAE and RDMAE.
