If I'm not mistaken the banks are not really nearby. You should have two
banks, one from 0x90000000 to 0x97ffffff and one from 0xa0000000 to
0xa7ffffff.
I don't know where the resource 0x98000000:0x9fffffff comes from. Could
you paste the output of the iomem command? Are you using the code from
arch/arm/mach-imx/esdctl.c or are you bypassing it?
