Sorry I missed v1, so I'm going to ask for more changes :}

Putting it here exposes it to the whole kernel, but it's only needed
inside arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac.

The right place for the prototype is arch/powerpc/platforms/powermac/pmac.h,
which is for platform internal prototypes.

The ifdef around the prototype doesn't gain much, and is extra visual
noise, so I'd rather without it.
