Re: [parisc-linux] System bus walk patch

[Ryan Bradetich <rbradetich@uswest.net>]

After revewing the feedback I received from this patch, I
took the liberty to cleanup arch/parisc/kernel/inventory.c
to meet the CodingStyle requirments.  I also committed my
changes to include the System Bus Walking code into cvs
head.  If this commit causes any problems for anyone, let me
know, and I'd be glad to work through the issues with them.

Thanks,

- Ryan
