Guenter,

The original patch that introduced these changes (commit f1dd153121 - 
powerpc/pseries: Make 32-bit MSI quirk work on systems lacking firmware 
support) depends on commit e375b561 (PCI: Cache MSI/MSI-X capability 
offsets in struct pci_dev), however, the patch I sent to the stable 
mailing-list were backported to be applied over 3.9.y. I have already 
sent an email to Greg to let him know that the original patch breaks the 
ppc build and the backported version should be picked up instead.


Thanks,
