This patchset is loosely based on earlier work by BALATON Zoltan balaton@eik.bme.hu and provides basic infrastructure to allow OpenBIOS to enable PCI device bus mastering.
Following on from discussions on the QEMU mailing list, it seems that Apple's OF enables bus mastering for some PCI devices by default, and as a result some buggy drivers forget to explicitly enable it and hence these devices fail under QEMU's emulation.
The first 3 patches add the basic support routines while the last 2 patches enable bus mastering for the rtl8139 card on Apple PPC machines which is required for OS X and MorphOS.

Following up from this, I found out today that the reason OS 9 rtl8139 drivers don't work in QEMU is due to the same issue, i.e. by default Apple OF appears to enable bus mastering upon boot (OpenBIOS currently doesn't) and so many driver authors forget to explicitly enable this.
So taking this patch and making a few minor tweaks I was able to get the rtl8139 working in OS 9.2 and surf the web in Classilla :) I'm not sure whether it solves similar issues people were having in 10.4.11 but I'd invite people to test and report back.
I'm also of the mind that for OpenBIOS I think this patch is a bit of overkill - if BM is to be enabled, then it would be configured by the on-board FCode ROM regardless of bus/slot id so I'm going to remove this part of the patch for the respin.
ATB,
