Would you mind looking at the code, giving me feedback ("this totally
sucks and needs to be thrown out" is perfectly valid) and looking for
things I may have missed?
For one, pci_auto sucks and needs to be thrown out. If the generic Linux
PCI resource assignment is broken, fix it rather than reimplementing it.
Point taken.  I'll put it on the list but since its useful for testing
right now, I make it a lower priority.
I'd also like to ditch the typedefs (use struct mv64x60_setup_info
instead of mv64x60_setup_info_t etc.).
Ahh, G*d I hate that...struct aaa, struct bbb, struct ccc all over the
place when its not necessary & adds no value.  Anyway, I will do that.
Further than that I haven't noticed much yet -- my Friday ended before I
got the machine to boot. I think I relocated the chip to the wrong
address, because first the memory probe returned zero and then the PCI
idents were all 0xFFFF. I'll play some more on Monday.

Thanks for the pointers.
Sure.  Let me know how it goes.

Mark
