The firmware image in the src tree should work.

Not sure what you asking.  The memory layout for the board should be 
documented by the vendor.  Much is standardized by the IXP42xx but 
others are board-specific.  Many memory locations are defined relative 
to the base address of IXP memory boundaries in arm/xscale/ixp*/*.h. 
Some bits that have been found to vary between boards are already 
settable as hints (e.g. look in AVILA.hints).

This indicates the mapping isn't recognized/handled.  Not sure if this 
is because your hardware is different or the system is reading 
information from the wrong memory locations.

Looks like most of your issues stem from the PCI support not being setup 
as expected.
