It never hurts to ask.

Your patches are saying, "Andy, your code has poor style." I don't
agree, especially about #3. Also, maybe the deleted callback will
useful one day. After all, there are not that many phylib
drivers. Perhaps future MAC drivers will need this.

Here, let me find that for you.

    powerpc: Convert platforms to smp_generic_cpu_bootable
    
    T4, Cell, powernv, and pseries had the same implementation, so switch
    them to use a generic version. A2 apparently had a version, but
    removed it at some point, so we remove the declaration, too.

    powerpc: Add smp_generic_cpu_bootable
    
    Cell and PSeries both implemented their own versions of a
    cpu_bootable smp_op which do the same thing (well, the PSeries
    one has support for more than 2 threads). Copy the PSeries one
    to generic code, and rename it smp_generic_cpu_bootable.
