The DT sample above looks good in principle. I believe what you are missing
here is code in your driver to scan the child nodes to create the platform
devices. of_bus_isa_translate() should work with your definition here
and create the correct IORESOURCE_IO resources. You don't have any MMIO
resources, so the absence of a ranges property is ok. Maybe all you 
are missing is a call to of_platform_populate() or of_platform_bus_probe()?
