I've tried a lot of things such as debugging step by step with gdb/JTAG/Peedi, writing to these registers with the Peedi, desabling address translation, using writel/out_le32/..., they are always 0x0 ! However, writing in RAM works perfectly !

Have you reset the RTC using RTCCR?

And you should be using out_be32()/in_be32().  writel()/out_le32() are
for little-endian registers.

Any IMMR register at all, or any RTC register?
