A 'static volatile u8*' type sounds very wrong. You use the variable
only in one function, so it should be local to that. There is normally
no reason to ever mark a variable volatile in driver code, instead
you want it to be '__iomem'. It should probably also be 'void *'
instead of 'u8 *', so it doesn't get dereferenced by accident.
Your references should be changed to use in_8/out_8 or readb/writeb,
depending on whether it's on-chip or PCI space.

I'm not sure if scanning through the device tree to find mmio addresses
is still considered valid style. I would instead prefer you to provide a
of_platform_driver that attaches to the respective 'compatible' property
and does the register access in its probe() function in order to not
conflict with other drivers.
