Why the ifdefs around the firmware check? Shouldn't it compile out to
nothing for !ISERIES anyway?
I wasn't sure if it gets built for 32 bit or ppc and have broken them
before.  This was the patch is very obviously safe and is more likely to
get accepted ...
The safe road ey :)

It does get built for 32-bit, but the firmware feature test is safe.
AFAIK ppc still has its own copy of xmon which it uses.

ps. why are you including <asm/iseries/it_lp_reg_save.h> instead of
firmware.h?

cheers
