#ifdef __powerpc64__
#define LONG_ASM_CONST(x)               ASM_CONST(x)
#else
#define LONG_ASM_CONST(x)               0
#endif

#define CPU_FTR_NOEXECUTE               LONG_ASM_CONST(0x0000000800000000)

Am I not looking at the right code?  Since e200 and e500 aren't powerpc64,
doesn't adding CPU_FTR_NOEXECUTE have no effect at all?
