I cherry-picked the nm10_gpio driver from the ChromeOS kernel, but while it worked fine the chrontel driver still couldn't detect the chip:

XAUTHORITY=//home/mythtv/.Xauthority ./ch7036_monitor -v -p     
./ch7036_monitor: starts
Found device ID 0xff
./ch7036_monitor: Fatal: Device ID 0xff not the expected 0x56

So either it isn't a ch7036 or I'm still not doing everything necessary to expose it.
