May be I found (hack not solution) I replace gcc parameter -fsoft-float 
with -fhard-float and recompile kernel. After this I can link sdcore2.o 
without any modification (but better was recompile sdcore2.o with 
-fsoft-float) and now I compile driver. After insert this on my TS-7400
I get this:


tssdcard: Technologic Systems SD card controller, address 0x13000000 

tssdcard: card /dev/tssdcarda has 2012160 sectors (LUN 0) 

  tssdcarda:size:0 sector:0 amount:8 rw:0
