I have his tree here and and it does not seem to contain bits for
mpc52xx with arch=powerpc (unless there are some git-secrets I'm not

We have these drivers running already with arch=ppc. I have not looked

like a transition from platform_device to of_device.

I just received a patch from nicolas det with a port from ppc to
powerpc, I'll have a look at it. He posted it on linuxppc-dev
