Actually, I just got buswidth==8 working on a 32-bit ppc (my configuration
is 4 devices in 16 bit mode).  However, I found that I could use __u64 for
passing data around, but __u64 would not work when accessing the devices..
For this, I had to use a little trick: floating point loads and stores.
On the ppc, these are 64 bits wide.

I'd be willing to submit patches...  Shall I send them to you?
