Device-tree bugs on js20 with some versions of SLOF were causing the interrupt for IDE to not be parsed correctly and fail to boot. This patch adds a bit more sanity checking to the parser to detet some of those errors and fail instead of returning bogus informations. The powerpc PCI code can then trigger a fallback that works on those machines.
Quite similar to my patch you have been refusing, so I'll just ACK it, irrespective of if we need it or not (anymore) -- it's a good, useful, cheap sanity check. The patch looks good, too. Segher
