According to my 106 user manual it's a pure northbridge, without I2C
unit, DMA, or interrupt controller. The code should work for the 824x
family, but I don't have any of them.

I've just done a bk pull which has fetched your 85xx ocp code. I can
copy your config approach and make MPC10X_BRIDGE set FSL_OCP.

As for the updates based on EUMBAR, we do them at the same time. I've
done them in syslib code rather than platform code, because I'm trying
to minimise the board specific code. My goal is for the platform
directory to contain the minimum amount of code necessary to describe
how the board vendor connected the chip. I have the added complication
that the board vendor may not have wired the MPC107 OpenPIC to the IRQ
line of the PowerPC. With the 824x and 85xx they don't have the ability
to make that mistake.
