Never did figure out out to search memory by address in the
driver.  Could you use a for loop with a readl() in it?

I got the driver to pass the cache test finally.

I also found out something interesting:  There is a limit as
to how many printks you can have in a driver. :)

Now hopefully I can get to more of the "fun" stuff.
