The Swarm IDE driver uses a release method which is defined in the driver
itself thus potencially oopsable. The simpel fix would be to just leak
"Potentially" and "simple". :-P
the device but this patch goes the full length and moves the entire
handling of the platform device in the platform code and retains only
the platform driver code in drivers/ide/mips/swarm.c.

This patch is for 2.6.27. The same issue exists in -stable but the patch
won't apply due to other driver changes.

If you have the resources as static array anyway, why not have the
device in the static variable too and use platform_device_register()?

Why drop request_resource() completely? Replace it by
request_mem_region().
