There should be some code to set SMC1_BASE to the 0x87FC offset of the DPRAM, 
whatever SMC1_BASE is fixed or dynamically allocated .

My kernel is 2.6.25, this SMC1_BASE value can be transferred to  kernel by dts 
tree, but I have not find the code to set it to  0x87FC offset of the DPRAM. Or 
there is another way to solve it ?
