Sorry, Brian. It has been fixed as part of the following commit, which
has been put into Ben's powerpc-next branch :-)
commit 93aef2a789778e7ec787179fc9b34ca4885a5ef3
161 static void ioda_eeh_phb_diag(struct pci_controller *hose)
162 {
163 struct pnv_phb *phb = hose->private_data;
164 - struct OpalIoPhbErrorCommon *common;
165 long rc;
166
167 - common = (struct OpalIoPhbErrorCommon *)phb->diag.blob;
168 - rc = opal_pci_get_phb_diag_data2(phb->opal_id, common, PAGE_SIZE);
169 + rc = opal_pci_get_phb_diag_data2(phb->opal_id, phb->diag.blob,
170 + PNV_PCI_DIAG_BUF_SIZE);
