I think it's very unlikely that this commit would be causing the
problem, as qemu doesn't have any SPEs (they're specific to the Cell
architecture), which would be required to hit this code. Also, you're 
not compiling with CONFIG_SPU_BASE, so the file that this changed 
shouldn't even be built.

Perhaps try the bisect again?

linuxppc-dev@...ts.ozlabs.org is the one you want for this:
