The interesting part about this patch is the changes I made to
prep_pcibios_fixup().  The old code was more than a little
opaque so I tried to change it to make it a bit clearer.  I'd
definitely be pleased if someone could cast their eyes over
that bit.

Is this jsut a "Residual Data is Good" type change, or does it fix some
set of IBM machines?  I ask since residual data on Motorola PRePs can be
incorrect, iirc.
