Yes, after re-reading the header files I see that you are right.

What I had in mind was an 'ncr_magic' option, to go with 'ncr_irq' and 
'ncr_addr'. This is supposed to be a generic driver, after all.

But now that I've seen what that would involve (adding another member to 
struct override) I've changed my mind.

I think the new board type was the right approach. That is, a combination 
of your v2 and v3 patches. I'll send my version to you to test.

Thanks.
