First, why are you using such an old kernel? Please use current git, or
at least 2.6.20.
SH7705 has not had a lot of attention in some time, so it's quite
possibly broken. The EDOSK7705 board will likely be removed unless
someone expresses an interest in it in the near future.

There is a 7705 Solution Engine, yes. I'm not aware of anyone actively
working on it, though. The SH7705 part itself has been obsoleted for some
time, so I don't expect this to change much in the future either.
