And I guess the next question is related to the first: why doesn't it work when used with DT? When I copy over the nodes from the evm.dts to my board I get "tsc tsc: Missing platform data" in dmesg.

Rachana,

I see no point adding support for platform_data when you know that none of
older platforms are going to use this driver and all future platforms _must_
follow device-tree model.

So I agree that you should remove board file dependency from the driver.

Can you share the branch which you have tested?

Thanks,
