There is, in the same file, around line 319 code to read the clock speed from
the device tree. However, is it really necessary to include the clock speed at
this point? What is the drawback if we just assume 500 MHz (or even the max
value) for every G3 based machine?
Why assume when we can do it properly?  Besides, a friend of mine oc'ed his
B&W to 550, so it's possible to have >500Mhz :)
Like this?
Looks almost sane.

But why 500 here?  The bit for reading temp is on all G3s, yes?  And since
we assume 300Mhz clock, which is the middle of the clock ranges (close enough)
shouldn't this be 300 as well?
