Ah, i guess that was the missing bit. Basically i need to set MV64360 for my
board, but since it is a generic PPC_CHRP, how is that supposed to work ? 

Could you send me maybe a list of files which need merging yet, compared to
2.6.11 ? I guess it just doesn't work because i am missing pieces.

The pegasos has the mv64360 registers mapped at 0xf1000000, and the ports
(only port1 is wired though) mapped at interrupt 9, shared with other devices.
I guess that would be the only real difference with the other currently
supported hardware, right ? 

Will look at the above mentioned files and function and try to enable it.
