Well, thanks for the invitation :)
I've been trying to work on the pci support here too. But I've used a 
bit different approach. I tried to add 64-bit phys addr support to 
pci_32.c. The patch seems to work on Sequoia. Actually, I thought 
merging was too risky at this point and might cause more problems 
breaking both 64 and 32-bit pci support.
Thanks,
Valentine.
