Please copy the powerpc developers on powerpc patches.

especially ones like that ;)

Matthew has proposed that advansys should be dependent upon
CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS.  I don't think anyone's done a patch yet though.

(Actually, the code which you've altered there should probably be using
CONFIG_VIRT_TO_BUS, too).
