Subject: [patch 129/176] powerpc: Fix some 6xx/7xxx CPU setup functions

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@...nel.crashing.org>

commit 1f1936ff3febf38d582177ea319eaa278f32c91f upstream.

Some of those functions try to adjust the CPU features, for example
to remove NAP support on some revisions. However, they seem to use
r5 as an index into the CPU table entry, which might have been right
a long time ago but no longer is. r4 is the right register to use.

This probably caused some off behaviours on some PowerMac variants
using 750cx or 7455 processor revisions.
