please use more recent sources.
for people not used to sparc the message got really improved:
                printk(KERN_EMERG "Press Stop-A (L8-A) to return to the boot prom\n");
remember my first time glaring at it. :)

anyway if you aren't exposed to sparc you could ignore code inside of
#ifdef __sparc__
