[PATCH] powerpc: Remove bogus sanity check in pci -> OF node code
From: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <hidden>
Date: 2007-01-11 05:40:42
The new implementation of pci_device_to_OF_node() on ppc32 has a bogus sanity check in it that can cause oopses at boot when no device node is present, and might hit correct cases with older/weird apple device-trees where they have the type "vci" for the chaos bridge. Signed-off-by: Benjamin Herrenschmidt <benh@kernel.crashing.org> --- Zang, please confirm that this fixes your problem. If it does, paulus, this should go in 2.6.20 Index: linux-work/arch/powerpc/kernel/pci_32.c ===================================================================
