This is a good point...  In fact the other patch (although tiny) is
more important, since it affects drivers, which should work in
arch/powerpc.  Thanks for the feedback anyway!

On this topic: has anyone tried using the recent Walnut patches for
arch/powerpc?   I briefly took a look at starting to port the Virtex
support to arch/powerpc but I'm a bit lost as to where to start... :)
