Subject: Re: [PATCH] powerpc/mpc85xx: also write addr_h to spin table for
 64bit boot entry

Hi Scott,

Sorry for the late reply, I have checked the compilation error from
kbuild system, and found when CONFIG_PHYS_64BIT is not set,
phys_addr_t is 32bit, there is still "right shift count >= width of
type" error.
So I update the patches accordingly.
