Not really.  The 440GP user manual refers to the bridge (as opposed to
the bus) as POB0.  The label is meant to reflect that.

That's kind of deliberate.  The idea is to use the of_serial stuff
instead of legacy_serial.  legacy_serial was really meant for *legacy*
(i.e. ISA) serial ports, not these on chip things.

The revised version of ebony.c already scans ibm,plb and ibm,opb
busses for OF devices.
