Thanks, applied in r924.
Concerning ADB on ppc64, I think this is related to the OHCI warning
on the serial console and complete lack of USB controller support in
drivers/pci_database.c except for usb_iface definitions. Any help
fixing this would be appreciated. I guess we would need the equivalent
of sys_devices mapping the PCI IDs to OF property strings and values?
