I've just tried it, assuming that you mean 'io=0x301' (it's a little bit
difficult, because it is an embedded board where command line changes mean
flashing a new kernel). Unfortunately, it doesn't work. The io= line ends
in the environment, which looks like the driver hasn't fetched it from the
kernel command line. 

The driver is compiled in, because during the nfsroot boot there is no
other medium available.
