I do this in my T130B/NCR53C400 patch and in my own kernel and it works
fine.

Looks like either the newest kernels have changed a bit that I haven't
noticed or IRQ_NONE and DMA_NONE are not defined to what you think. Try
passing -1,-1 instead and see what's happening.
Does the string 'commandline_current' appear around that area? ie is it a
result of the #defines or is it there.
