I'd like to see the fact that this is a workaround for a MorphOS-specific bug recorded in both the comment and the commit message (I seem to remember it was mentioned in your original patch description?).
The reason for this is that OpenBIOS strives to be an IEEE1275-compliant firmware compatible, and so where we deviate from behaviour documented in the specification (particularly for compatibility purposes), I'd like a clear record of why the change is needed in order to prevent someone coming along later and inadvertently changing it.
ATB,
