Ok. I've gone and ported the 8xx serial driver, and other misc 8xx
things up to what 2.6 wants them to be, as well as a few of the
simpler changes to head_8xx.S.
Thanks. So, does the kernel at least compile now? :-)
Compiles, links, boots and happily dies inside of head_8xx.S :)

...and in 2.6 having request_8xxirq becomes much uglier because of
the irqreturn_t stuff
I'm finally going to update this. I've got a pretty good implemenation
of the cascaded controller stuff for the 8560, once I get this
debugged I'll port it here.
Sounds like a plan.

Dan, if you have _anything_ done for head_8xx.S can you please post
it?
Yeah, maybe I can do some debug now, too.
Hopefully :)

That sounds nice.

Any chance to push the changes to the linuxppc-2.5 tree for us poor saps?
It doesn't have to work or anything, just give us something to work...
