It would be nice if the global struct ocp_def core_ocp was just a pointer.
Then in a ibm405gp.c and friends could have a static of the entire stucture
and set the global pointer to it.

That should be a pretty straight forward change. The only change to code
that use core_ocp would be maybe a NULL check, but even that could be avoided.

The great thing about these chips is that you can stamp down different OCP's
as needed regaurdless of the actual CPU type.
