Please do not remove stuff that is needed and used to work (in 2.4).
Note the bug in question exists in 2.4, and I think really even 2.2.
Hm... as far as I can remember (and see in the change logs) the  only
fix  we  implemented  for our 2.4.25 tree to get swapping on a MPC8xx
working was a set of bad offsets in include/asm-ppc/pgtable.h - see
http://www.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linuxppc_2_4_devel.git;a=commit;h=e6d7a1c83f9fd5820cdb85389d6a8f2207f3641d

With this change swapping works fine for us - some of  our  customers
have been using this code in production for over two years now.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
