Jeff, do you have any objections against this patch going into the kernel
via Paul's powerpc.git tree? It touches only a few lines of ehea which are
specific to the bus interface changes.
You can see the full patch here:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/linuxppc/patch?id=13750
If you have no objections, please ack the patch so Paul can include it.
Thanks and regards,
Joachim
